Similarity solutions are derived for the kinematic evolution of a supernova remnant buried in a molecular cloud of uniform density, and estimates are made for the emergent spectrum from the radio through the X-ray. The possible effects of density gradients in the cloud are considered. It is noted that the negative gradient prolongs the adiabatic phase and hence gives a higher luminosity at a given radius. The effects of a bubble blown by a stellar wind during the lifetime of the supernova star are outlined.
