Developed by @NOAASatellites and Maryland's CICESS with GINA data, the Alaska Snowfall Rate gives the liquid equivalent (in/hr) snowfall rate using microwave instruments on satellites. In Alaska, the SFR is most valuable for filling observational gaps in radar-poor regions. #akwx
A satellite image of Alaska displaying the “Snowfall Rate” product. The product uses color to display the snowfall rate in inches per hour. In the image, we see snow occurring in the mountainous regions of Alaska, in the Alaska Range, at around 0.02 in/hr.
