English: Storm Filomena hit Spain on the second weekend of January 2021, blanketing large parts of the country in snow and bringing Madrid and its surroundings to a standstill as the city experienced its heaviest snowfall in 50 years. Across the country, the storm claimed at least four lives, affected about 20,000km of roads and left thousands trapped in their cars for as many as 12 hours without food and water. This image acquired by one of the Copernicus Sentinel-2 satellites on 11 January 2021 shows a rare image of Madrid completely covered with snow. Snow cover is of crucial importance for climate studies. The Copernicus Land Monitoring Service product portfolio includes the High Resolution Snow & Ice (HR-S&I) Monitoring products: these products provide snow and ice information over the 39 Members States of the European Environment Agency at high resolution (20 m x 20 m) and are derived from Copernicus Sentinel-2 satellites data.
