I keep going back to the slo-mo pictures on
Florida Today's site. I noticed that in about frame 10 and 11 (if I am counting correctly) that there is a small plume that appears under the wing immediately before the large plume in appears in frames 12 & 13.
Am I seeing correctly? Is that an additional small plume or perhaps something in the background?

I do see what might be a small plume before the large plume, but it may be a trick of sunlight. These photos are pretty dark, so it's hard to tell.
Fox News and MSNBC both have some very good video of this that they've been showing for the last two days. I will watch for the small plume and see if I can see it better in the video.

YES! I now see what you are referring to.
The small plume appears to be about the orientation and momentum of the original object.
Does the larger plume appear to originate from a more lateral or port origin than the smaller plume that you see in frame 10 or 11?
In reviewing the Florida Today sequence, you definitely see two separate plume densities. Most interesting!
