Starting on June 19, 2024, there was a large haboob (“wall of dust”) over New Mexico and nearby regions. This was captured by both GOES-18 (1-min “mesoscale”) and GOES-16 (5-min “Contiguous U.S.”) ABI imagery. What is shown is the CIMSS true color composite imagery during the day and the “dust” RGB at night. Both animations run from approximately 21 UTC on June 19 to 04 UTC on June 20th, 2024.

Similar loop as above, but as seen from NOAA’s GOES-East.

The imagery was generated with the geo2grid software. The data was accessed via the UW/SSEC Data Services. T. Schmit works for NOAA/NESDIS/STAR and is stationed in Madison, WI.
