Favorite Spring Website
Each spring for the past several years I have enjoyed watching the progress of spring on this website from the University of Wisconsin: http://ge.ssec.wisc.edu/modis-today/ . I have learned more about how to get maximum utility out of the images. When you get to the site, first click anywhere within the boundary Minnesota which will open the USA3 image for the day. Next choose the '250m' scale to zoom in. Now for the cool part...select the 'false color' option and any open water will be immediately obvious! As another hint to anyone following ice-out progress on the Rainy River, toggle off the 'State borders' so as to not mask image data. Enjoy!

Happy Easter and Happy Spring Dann!
The ocean is big, but I'm trying to convince mother nature that it is time to calm down so we can get to Salmon fishing during our probably short (1 month) season.
