Satellite Snow Picture

I just thought there may be some of you out there who would appreciate the link to the satellite picture being used in the news at the moment.  The link below the picture downloads the entire UK:

Dear Bunkerbarge,

Thanks for that. If the image is clicked it goes to a good scale doesn't it :-)) I use GoogleEarth so much these days that I had forgotten about the NASA site!

Regards, Bernard

The trouble is with Google Earth is that it is quite a bit out of date but the Nasa site is showing a picture from yesterday.  Not the same level of detail as Google so I can't quite see my house but there again it's covered in snow anyway!!

And here's the head of the Met Office explaining why he's still worth a 25% bonus taking his pay up to 200k per year despite getting the forecasts wrong every year....
