By late afternoon on Jan. 23, snowfall totals were approaching records in several states, and hurricane-force winds were battering the coastlines and leading to serious flooding. The storm was expected to continue through the morning of Jan.\u00a024.<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><em>The\u00a0Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite\u00a0(VIIRS) on the\u00a0Suomi NPP\u00a0satellite acquired this image of the storm system at 2:15 a.m. EST\u00a0on Jan.\u00a023. It was composed through the use of the VIIRS \u201cday-night band,\u201d which detects faint light signals such as city lights, moonlight, airglow, and auroras. In the image, the clouds are lit from above by the nearly full Moon and from below by the lights of the heavily populated East Coast. The city lights are blurred in places by cloud cover.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/sites\/default\/files\/thumbnails\/image\/blizzard_moonlight_160123.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-12098\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"12098\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/hobbyspace.com\/Blog\/?attachment_id=12098\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/hobbyspace.com\/Blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/blizzard_moonlight_1601231.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"2408,3136\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"blizzard_moonlight_160123[1]\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/hobbyspace.com\/Blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/blizzard_moonlight_1601231-786x1024.jpg\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-12098\" src=\"http:\/\/hobbyspace.com\/Blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/blizzard_moonlight_1601231-786x1024.jpg\" alt=\"blizzard_moonlight_160123[1]\" width=\"520\" height=\"677\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hobbyspace.com\/Blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/blizzard_moonlight_1601231-786x1024.jpg 786w, https:\/\/hobbyspace.com\/Blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/blizzard_moonlight_1601231-230x300.jpg 230w, https:\/\/hobbyspace.com\/Blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/blizzard_moonlight_1601231-768x1000.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 520px) 100vw, 520px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s an image of the storm as seen from the space station:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/StationCDRKelly\/status\/690850325390049280\/photo\/1?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">Scott Kelly on Twitter: <\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><em>&#8220;Massive #snowstorm blanketing #EastCoast clearly visible from @Space_Station!
