This is a nice little picture - you really need to go to the link to appreciate.

I realise that dust storm pics are a dime a dozen on MODIS, but this one is a thunderstorm outflow boundary in southern Chad.
If you look around this and other Sahara subsets in the last few days there appears to have also been some isolated weak convection ( not system above ) in the central sahara - albiet over Tibesti and other high ranges.
