You don't have to search the skies over Gloucester Township today to check for Santa Claus' arrival—just fire up your computer or smartphone.

Normally, the North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD) keeps the United States and Canada safe from dangers in the sky or space. But tonight, NORAD's focus shifts to tracking the big man in red, Santa Claus.

Visit NORAD's Santa Tracker today to follow Santa as he delivers gifts to good girls and boys. Along the way, you can learn a little more about geography and the route Santa takes to get the Christmas Eve deliveries done on time. There's even a Windows 8 app to track Santa. Or you can call or email NORAD for the latest updates.

Out and about today? Fire up your smartphone to keep an eye on Santa' progress. NORAD has apps for iPhones, Androids and Windows phones. 

If all of that isn't enough, Google is in the Santa-tracking game too, with its own Santa Tracker.
