Florida:
Several fires on the Gulf Coast of Taylor and Dixie counties are
producing light smoke that is extending 50 nmi to the southwest into
the Gulf of Mexico.

Unless otherwise indicated:

Areas of smoke are analyzed using GOES-EAST and GOES-WEST Visible satellite imagery.

Only a general description of areas of smoke or significant smoke plumes will be analyzed.

A quantitative assessment of the density/amount of particulate or the vertical distribution is not included.

Widespread cloudiness may prevent the detection of smoke even from significant fires.
