1/5 Interesting #dust blob off Florida coast. Where will the #SaharanDust that crossed the US go next? Will it make it to Europe? On 27 June #dust extends from Cuba to North Carolina, still up to nearly 5km altitude.
2/5 28 June, #SaharanDust spreads westwards over Atlantic, upper boundary still 4-5km on leading edge
3/5 29 June, #dust patchy over Atlantic but still present. (No #calipso images in yet). OMPS AI left, MODIS Terra AOD right.

Initial evaluation of forecast vs. independent Aeronet measurements from beginning of June shows the model captures the trend at Cape Verde & Santa Cruz, Tenerife but underestimates total aerosol optical depth. ImageImage
Initial evaluation vs. independent #CALIPSO backscatter obs through dust cloud shows the model captures vertical structure of the dust as it is transported across the Atlantic on 17 June 2020. Satellite overpasses shown with VIIRS visible imagery from go.nasa.gov/311xchI ImageImageImage
