Dust storms off Egypt
A large plume of Saharan Desert dust (light brownish pixels) were blowing over Libya and Egypt northward over the Mediterranean Sea toward the Middle East, on February 2, 2003. The island of Cyprus is situated toward the upper righthand of this image, partially obscured by one particularly thick portion of the dust plume approaching Israel's western shoreline.
