      A cold winter storm dropped both temperatures and fresh snow as it   
      rolled across the Southwestern United States on December 12-13.   
      Flagstaff, Arizona dropped from a relatively balmy high of 49˚F on   
      December 10 to a high of just 28˚F on December 13, with a low   
      temperature of 3˚F recorded on December 14. The town, which sits on the   
      edge of the Colorado Plateau in northern Arizona’s Coconino County,   
      reported up to seven inches of new snow by December 13. Nearby, but at   
      a higher elevation, the Arizona Snowbowl counted more than a foot of   
      the white stuff from the storm. Lower elevations across the region also   
      saw colder temperatures, but precipitation was in the form of rain.   
      
      On December 14, 2022, the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer   
      (MODIS) on board NASA’s Terra satellite acquired a true-color image of   
      the Southwestern United States shivering under the chilly temperatures   
      with the higher elevations wore a blanket of white. The states visible   
      in this image, from northwest clockwise are Nevada, Utah, Colorado, New   
      Mexico, Arizona, and California.
