Title : Low Pressure System over the U.S.

Caption :

A large low-pressure system approached the U.S. East Coast on May 24, 2001, bringing with it forecasts of rain through Memorial Day weekend. This true-color image shows the storm while it was centered over Illinois, Iowa, and Missouri. The smoke plume from a large fire northeast of Steinhatchee, Florida, is also visible to the lower right. In the Gulf of Mexico, the bright sun glint reveals a swath of relatively smooth water. The dark area in the patch of sun glint is a cloud shadow. Every day, imagery is collected by the direct broadcast receiving station at Goddard Space flight center as well as about two dozen other direct broadcast receiving stations around the world. Previews from NASA Goddard's receiving station are available from the Earth Observatory's Missions section. Direct broadcast stations receive data, enabling scientists to monitor regional meteorological and environmental conditions in near real time.
