Ken,

If you look at the following image (maybe needs registration - but free)
there appears to be a lot of dust over the western North Sea, clearly
visible to the NE of the cloud sheet:

The large bank of fog over and north of the Shetland Islands is also a
notable feature of the image.

Norman,

I am glad that someone has pointed this bank of fog out. It's been
remarkable watching it drift SW over the past 36 hours. I have never seen
one travel such a distance and persist for so long.
