Satellite pic shows snow-covered UK

a photo of the UK covered in snow credited to NEODAAS/University of Dundee

The winter whiteout conditions affecting the UK are clearly visible in a striking image of the whole country received by the University of Dundee Satellite Receiving Station today.

Virtually the entire country can be seen covered in a white blanket of snow and ice. The image was received today from a NASA satellite named Terra.

You can view and download the images from the following link - http://www.sat.dundee.ac.uk/

The image is available for use but MUST BE CREDITED to 'NEODAAS/University of Dundee'.
