In general, there was a surprising amount of disagreement between to two images: the 4-km resolution GOES-12 fog\/stratus product suggested that fog was forming over places like the Finger Lakes region of New York and the Lake Champlain region along the Vermont\/New York border, while the 1-km resolution MODIS fog\/stratus product indicated significant areas of river valley fog across parts of northern Pennsylvania into southern New York.<\/p>\n

A closer view (below)<\/strong><\/em> helps to illustrate the problem of fog\/stratus product verification — there was a lack of reporting stations in the actual areas where river valley fog was forming.<\/p>\n
