Smoke from Canadian Wildfires
Smoke from multiple large wildfires in Quebec, Canada, drifted far to the south of the border. The Canadian Interagency Forest Fire Center reported there were seven out-of-control fires burning south of James Bay (the southern extension of Hudson Bay), all probably the result of lightning.

A Zoom over the smoke from the Canadian wildfires dated July 24, 2002.    A Zoom over the smoke from the Canadian wildfires dated July 24, 2002.
