"NASA Discovers Unusual Phenomenon in Russian Eastern Skies"

NASA's Terra satellite, equipped with the MODIS instrument, captured striking images of parallel cloud formations known as "cloud streets" off the eastern coast of Russia. These formations occur when cool, dry air moves over warmer waters, leading to vapor condensation and cloud formation. The phenomenon was observed alongside anomalously low temperatures in the region, as reported by NASA's Global Modeling and Assimilation Office (GMAO). The cloud streets and the associated low temperatures are part of ongoing research to understand Earth's climate and atmospheric conditions.
