STS100-704-63 East-central Pacific: A jetstream cloud formation is encountering strong wind shear aloft--tropical E Pacific SE of Hawaii (17N 145W).

STS100-704-69 United States/Mexico: A pair of jetstream cloud patterns move off the Pacific over western North America. In the foreground, the polar jet over and advancing cold front cuts across extreme southern California. Further south, near the horizon, over Baja California, the subtropical jet carries moisture from the tropical Pacific.

STS100-711-79 United States: Late snowfall over the central Great Plains extends northeastward from southeastern Wyoming and the Nebraska Sand Hills.

STS100-711-85 United States: The Missouri River slices across a pair of snow streaks laid by a late-season storm. The large reservoir of Lake Oahe lies just northwest of Pierre in central South Dakota.
