Astronaut posts photos of historic storm from space
Those wondering what this weekend’s historic blizzard looks like other than House Speaker Paul Ryan’s livestream have a chance to see it from space.
Astronaut Scott Kelly tweeted images of the storm blanketing the East Coast early Saturday.
Winter storm Jonas was “clearly visible” from the International Space Station, Kelly tweeted.
