    NORAD says 1 billion checked out Santa's flight

    COLORADO SPRINGS (AP) - The North American Aerospace Defense Command expects the number of hits to its Santa Claus tracking Web site to top 1 billion this year.

    Nearly 1,000 volunteers staffed the telephones Monday answering questions from the young and young at heart about Santa's whereabouts.

    Last year there were 435,000 phone calls.

    The most popular questions – "Where is Santa now?" and "When will Santa get to where I am?"

    Visits to the Web site, available in English, French, German, Italian, Japanese and Spanish, have grown steadily since its launch in 1997. It allows users to track a global map of Santa's trek and three-dimensional aerial images of Santa and his sleigh using software provided by search-engine giant Google. Last year it had more than 900 million hits.

    Denver set a new record for snowfall on Christmas Day with 7.8 inches measured at the former Stapleton International Airport site. The old record for Christmas Day was 6.2 inches set in 1894.
