The La Palma Fire from Space

NASA image of the La Palma fire on Sunday

I was going to have a break from blogging for a couple of days, but I couldn't resist this photo, taken from a NASA satellite on Sunday August 2nd. The island downwind of La Palma is La Gomera, 50 km away.

I think it must have been early on Sunday afternoon: the fire in the west is out, and the clouds are just about to arrive.

It looked spectacular from underneath, but not as spectacular as this.
