Smoke Description

Descriptive text narrative for smoke/dust observed in satelite imagery through June 15, 2024, 6:05 p.m.

SMOKE:
Southwestern US/Midwestern US/Southern US/ Atlantic Seaboard - Remnant smoke originating from previous and ongoing wildfires in Canada, has mixed with both current smoke from ongoing fires in the Midwest and smoke/aerosols emanating from the Gulf of Mexico. This mass of smoke and aerosols have been observed blowing eastwards and blanketing the Midwestern and Southern US states. The mass of smoke was observed wrapping around the central Appalachian Mountains and blowing across the east coast into the Atlantic Ocean.

South Central Utah/Northern New Mexico/Central Texas - Lite to Medium density smoke emanating from suspected agricultural burns in South Central Utah have continued to persist into the evening. The large band of smoke observed in the morning proceeded to blow towards the east, crossing into states such as Colorado, Arizona, New Mexico, and bending towards the South into Central Texas.

FAQs

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

Wildfire smoke can travel long distances, extending far beyond the immediate fire zone. Carried by prevailing winds, it can cover hundreds, or even thousands, of miles. This means that even if a community is not close to a wildfire, it may still be exposed to its smoke.

Tell Me More ›

Can you see wildfires on Google Maps? ›

Get information about active wildfires

There are different ways to find information about active wildfires on your map: Turn on the Wildfires layer: Tap Layers. the Wildfires button. Search for the fire: Enter a fire-related query into the Google Maps search box, such as “wildfires” or the name of an individual fire.

Read The Full Story ›

How high does wildfire smoke travel? ›

The higher the smoke reaches, the farther the smoke can travel. In some cases, this smoke can form an explosive storm cloud called Pyrocumulonimbus. These explosive clouds can launch the smoke even higher, reaching over 5 miles above the surface of the earth into the stratosphere.

Keep Reading ›

Is wildfire smoke radioactive? ›

A: Based on studies conducted on controlled burns and wildfires in the Southwestern United States, the amount of radioactive material that is released during a fire is extremely low and would lead to little, if any, increase in radiation exposure.

Find Out More ›

How long does wildfire smoke stay in the air? ›

Smoke from forest fires can linger in the atmosphere for a couple of weeks as it spreads. While in the air the smoke particles chemically react with trace radicals – molecules with unpaired electrons – to undergo a process known as oxidation.

Discover More ›

How far does smoke travel outside? ›

Studies on outdoor exposure to secondhand smoke have found:

Secondhand smoke odor is detectable at 23 feet from the source and irritation levels began 13 feet from the source.

Know More ›

What website tracks forest fires? ›

Fire Enterprise Geospatial Portal (EGP) is the authoritative source of standardized geospatial information for the full range of wildfire activities ranging from readiness to response to planning.

Tell Me More ›

Can animals detect wildfires? ›

Can animals predict wildfires? For some wild animals, their keen sense of smell and awareness of their environment allows them to notice when a fire starts—but they have no way of knowing when and where fires will occur ahead of time.
