Smoke Description

Descriptive text narrative for smoke/dust observed in satelite imagery through July 22, 2024, 1 a.m.

SMOKE:
Canada/United States/Atlantic Ocean - A significant amount of mixed density smoke attributed to a combination of seasonal fire activity in Canada and the United States continued to produce a large mass of observable smoke. The smoke has continued extending through Northeastern province of British Columbia and mixing with smoke from various regional wildfires. The large mass of smoke (ranging from light to heavy density) has continued to stretch across the northern continental plain before dispersing into the Atlantic Ocean. Thick density smoke was was observed engulfing Canada and parts of northern U.S. As the mass moved towards the east, light to moderate density smoke was observed dispersing down from Canada into the USA, with moderate smoke extending as far south as Texas.

Northwest U.S. - Moderate smoke produced from numerous large wildfires in Oregon, Washington and California, was observed extending over Oregon extending off the coast before progressing north across Washington and Idaho, where it mixed with the larger area of moderate to thick smoke from the wildfires in Canada. Thick density smoke from the larger wildfires in Oregon were seen extending across the Pacific northwest states of Washington, Oregon, and Idaho.

DUST: A moderate amount of Saharan dust was seen moving westward into the Atlantic Ocean, a lighter amount of Saharan dust was seen north off the east coast of the U.S. and moving into the western Caribbean Sea.

FAQs

What mask is best for wildfire smoke? ›

N95 masks offer best protection from wildfire smoke

If fitted and worn correctly, the N95 mask filters out 95% of particles larger than 0.3 microns, so they're very efficient with keeping out the 2.5-micron particles in wildfire smoke, according to Dr.

What is the best satellite for smoke? ›

The National Aeronautics and Space Administration's Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS), with channels specifically designed for fire detection, is the most commonly used satellite sensor for detecting fires over large regions.

Which airborne pollutant driving AQI above 150 requires to implement additional wildfire smoke precautions? ›

With exceptions, section 5141.1, Protection from Wildfire Smoke, applies to workplaces and operations where the current Air Quality Index (AQI) for PM2. 5 particulate is 151 or greater ("unhealthy") and where the employer should reasonably anticipate that employees may be exposed to wildfire smoke.

How far away can you see smoke from a forest fire? ›

Smoke can travel hundreds of miles, so you can be impacted even if you're not near an active fire.

Can an N95 mask filter cigarette smoke? ›
