Sahara duststorms
For the past couple of days there has been a very extensive and thick
duststorm over a large part of the Sahara. On visible imagery the dust can be seen spreading in a vast plume out over the Atlantic and southwards over the Gulf of Guinea. These images (infra red difference between spectral channels 4 and 5) from today's noaa19 overpass show the extent of the dust (the white areas on the images) http://www.woksat.info/etcsc21/sc21-1221-j-apt-s.html http://www.woksat.info/etcsc21/sc21-1401-e-apt-s.html -- Bernard Burton Wokingham, Berkshire, UK.
