Title : Central Mediterranean
Caption :
This is how the central Mediterranean area appeared to satellite on the first day of autumn. Mount Etna is sending an ash plume downwind while smoke from a fire in central Greece bespeaks a different wind direction. Dust continues to blow northward from Africa. The waters of the northern Italian coasts look fairly bright -- probably in part due to increased flow in rivers like the Po and Arno after severe weather two days ago. Italy, Sicily, Corsica, Sardinia, Greece and north Africa are visible.
