Though the last traces of winter are melting away and spring showers are in full swing across the U.S., the story of snow is not quite over for the season. In mid-April, two winter field campaigns involving NASA researchers are wrapping up, bringing with them unprecedented observations of snowfall. Understanding when, where, and how much snow is falling is critical for scientists and the public alike. In the short-term, accurate snowfall data can help weather forecasters prepare communities and plan against hazardous road conditions, power outages, and health risks. Over the long-term, these

This past week, a slow-moving, upper-level system moving through the central U.S. triggered several days of severe weather. The system caused numerous tornadoes, as well as heavy rains and flooding from the Deep South up through the middle Mississippi River Valley and into the Ohio River valley. The situation began when an upper-level area of low pressure situated over the northeast Pacific pivoted down into the central Rockies, creating a deep trough of low pressure aloft that extended down into the northern Baja. This channeled strong jet stream winds from south of the Four Corners region up
