DESCRIPTIVE TEXT NARRATIVE FOR SMOKE/DUST OBSERVED IN SATELLITE IMAGERY
THROUGH 1500Z October 19, 2005
Southeastern US: A slight hazy appearance was noted in the morning visible imagery across a large portion of the Southeast extending from the lower Mississippi Valley to off the Carolina coast. Some residual smoke from the numerous primarily agricultural fires detected yesterday afternoon/evening in the region could possibly be contained in the layer of haze trapped below the inversion level under the sprawling surface high pressure system centered over AL/GA.
