It’s that time of year again! Do you know where Santa is right now?
Here’s an excerpt from CBS News: It’s Christmas Eve, and Santa Claus is suiting up for his annual voyage from the North Pole to households around the world. In keeping with decades of tradition, the North American Aerospace Command, or NORAD, will once again track Santa’s journey to deliver gifts to children before Christmas 2024, using an official map that’s updated consistently to show where he is right now.
NORAD, the agency responsible for monitoring and defending airspaces over the United States and Canada, has tracked Santa’s whereabouts every year since 1958. Its predecessor, the Continental Air Defense Command, handled the project for three years before NORAD took over.
NORAD updates its map in real time to show Santa’s current location on his flight around the world.
Although the NORAD tracker reflects where Santa is at different points on his route around the world, so you can see how far Santa is from you, the map cannot predict when he will arrive at any given household. NORAD says its intel allows the tracker to follow Saint Nick along his Christmas journey but cannot anticipate his itinerary or where he’ll travel next once he stops at one location.
Check out Santa’s progress in the video below. And… Merry Christmas!
