Several of my Facebook friends posted this MODIS satellite image of the smoke in northern Georgia today.  Spectacular and troubling!  All of the smoke from several fires is blending to create significant haze across the area.  The smoke has caused problems with visibility on highways and respiratory issues for people with asthma and other lung conditions or who just have to work outside all day.
