NOAA and EPA said the cloud would pass southeast toward the Atlantic, with two potential ground contamination zones in the Southeast and Midwest, mostly high altitude and minimal ground impact. FAA and EPA urged calm, noting possible rain could wash material but not endanger air travel.

Bread export dilemma looms as stockpile climbs
