No need to check out the skies of Solon on Christmas Eve to see if Santa Claus is really coming to town. You can track the Jolly Old Elf the high-tech way.
The North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD) is charged with keeping the United States and Canada safe from dangers originating from the sky or space.
For Christmas, however, the Colorado-based government agency adds one more important task to its daily list of duties.
The agency will again provide its Official Santa Tracker that marks The Big Man's every move as he makes his way throughout both hemispheres. Google has its own Santa Tracker too.
Included on the site is a countdown and activity page and a flight tracking system.
Going to be out of the house? Don't worry, you can track Santa on your smartphone or iPhone with downloadable apps.
Kids and adults can have sugar plums dancing through everyone's head before retiring.
