What is Snow Today?
Snow Today is a NASA-funded research project that examines where snow is present, where it has snowed recently, and how much water is in the snow, while also comparing between snow today, snow yesterday, snow last year, and snow over the last few decades.
You can find the following resources on our website:
- Daily data visualizations of snow conditions in near-real time across the western United States
- Scientific data analysis articles published during the winter and spring months of the snow season
The Snow Today project is a collaborative effort between the National Snow and Ice Data Center (NSIDC) and the Institute of Arctic and Alpine Research (INSTAAR).
