Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Over the course of July 28–29, 2020, NOAA’s GOES-West satellite viewed a North Pacific low pressure system swirling in the Gulf of Alaska. To its north, the satellite clearly picked up the gray, hazy smoke wrapping into the system from the Siberian fires that have been raging since the beginning of June thousands of miles away. The Russian Federal Forestry Agency states that (translated from Russian) as of July 30, “there are 104 forest fires currently active on the Russian Federation’s territory over 281 square miles,” which emergency managers are busy trying to extinguish. Authorities in Russia are using more than 3,000 people, 394 units of ground equipment, and 29 planes to contain the blazes.
