Smoke at KJFK from Canada & Real Weather shows it

Kennedy in New York is closed today by the FCC due to the smoke
from the Canada forest fires.

FS2020 Real Weather shows it.

Sitting at runway 31R and I can’t see anything.
Just barely can see the runway and a heavy taxing toward me on the taxiway,

A screenshot from ingame would be awesome, for those at work.

Here a few shots, while the smoke is similar to what I have seen outside my window earlier today, the sun representation is no where near what I see (it is literally day-glow orange per the picture - taken from my iPhone just about 30 minutes ago - with no edits other than zooming in).

Yea, we see it up here at our airports, smoke has always been depicted well.

Strong North Winds the last 3-4 days, smoke is cleared out here (even though fires are close) as it’s blowing directly South.

Just came to the forums to see if anyone had posted about this.

Earlier today, I wanted to see how it was rendered in sim at KBWI. I was pleasantly surprised to see it looked so real. Very cool!
