The Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) on        board NASA’s Aqua satellite acquired a true-color image of the storm on        July 10.               Spanning about 1,000 kilometers (620 miles), the plume covered the        Spanish island of Mallorca (west) as well as Italy’s islands of        Sardinia (center) and Sicily (east). Ample dust also reaches the        Italian mainland, but the skies over Corsica—the island north of        Sardinia—remain relatively clear.               Although a source for this dust isn’t visible in this image, it appears        to have risen from the Sahara Desert near the border between Algeria        and Mali. Sand seas extend over large portions of the Sahara, including        in Algeria, Mali, and Mauritania. Such sand seas provide ample material        for dust storms, which can occur at any time of the year.               Image Facts        Satellite: Aqua        Date Acquired: 7/8/2023        Resolutions: 1km (234.5 KB), 500m (786.1 KB), 250m (2.4 MB)        Bands Used: 1,4,3        Image Credit: MODIS Land Rapid Response Team, NASA GSFC                            https://modis.gsfc.nasa.gov/gallery/individual.php?db_date=2023-07-11               --- up 1 year, 19 weeks, 1 day, 20 minutes        * Origin: -=> Castle Rock BBS <=- Now Husky HPT Powered!
