  1. How Wet Did It Get? Interactive slide show

  2. I need your help! Hi kids, I’m Pixel the Satellite. When I orbit the Earth, I see lots of clouds swirling about the globe. Can you see the clouds too?

  3. But I have a hard time telling which of these clouds are raining, which ones are snowing, and which ones are just… hanging out!

  4. Some of my satellite friends sit and watch clouds all day, so they can help people figure out where it will rain or snow. Here is an example of what my friend, named GOES, can see: GOES Look at all the cool clouds she sees there! You GOES, girl!

  5. Sometimes my friend GOES gets to see these swirled clouds that make up a storm. Do you know what this kind of storm is called?

  6. It’s called a hurricane! Hurricanes drop lots of rain and have STRONG winds! Yikes!!!

  7. I need your help! Can you help me measure the rainfall or snowfall at your school? When that next storm comes your way, I’d like to know: how wet did it get? Thanks for the help! See you soon!
