The following image comes from the Muskegon area:

The following is an satellite image brought to us by the Cooperative Institute for Meteorological Satellite Studies (CIMSS) at the University of Wisconsin-Madison.  This images shows us the the smoke drift trajectory across the state of Michigan.  You can actually see the smoke partially obscuring lake Michigan and Superior.

Out of tragedy comes some beautiful images.
