   Several days of stormy weather dumped a heavy layer of snow across the
   border of North Korea and China in early October 2022. The Moderate
   Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) on board NASA’s Aqua
   satellite acquired a true-color image of a swath of fresh snowfall on
   October 11.

   Near the center of the image, heavy snow blankets Paektu Mountain
   (Changbai Mountain), an active stratovolcano straddling the border
   between North Korea (south and east) and China (north and west). Heavy
   snow also sits atop the high peaks of North Korea’s Hamgyong Mountains,
   east of Paektu Mountain.
