Update:
Looks like the Register has noticed this too.

    As of 18:55 UTC the fog has lifted slightly, compared to the Register article. You can see Europe and Africa now, but if you zoom in, you don’t see any cities or roads, only country names and borders. I tried changing “local.google.co.uk” in the map url to “www.google.fr” and the map was the same. I’m curious about the large green areas in northernmost Canada. Global warming?
