which shows a satellite image of the snow covering the South Island at the moment.
This latest image over New Zealand was created using data from one of the MODIS sensors flying aboard NASA's EOS
satellites: AQUA (EOS-PM1), or TERRA (EOS-AM1). The data were received at NIWA's satellite receiving station at Lauder
(Central Otago).
