Title : Snowstorm in Northern Europe

Caption :

Heavy snow fell in northern Europe in mid-March 2006. Most of Europe east of Germany and Denmark was blanketed with late-winter snow when the NASA’s satellite captured this image on March 13, 2006. Heavy snow crippled Europe, particularly Germany, France, Italy, and Switzerland, on March 5, and much of that snow remained when the clouds cleared on March 13. Clouds still obscure the view along the right side of the image, though Germany, Denmark, and Scandinavia are largely clear.
