Airline Fire

The official record as of 9:09am today

The Airline Fire is on the interagency wildfire record at 2 acres in San Benito County, California. The figures below are the official record. A satellite heat map and day-by-day history appear here as soon as detections are attributed to this fire.

Conditions measured 23.5 miles from the fire: 61°F, air at 38% humidity, a 5 mph wind out of the south-west.

Four other fires are burning inside the same view. Airline Hwy Hollister Fire started 0 minutes after this one, 0.2 miles south-east, and has reached 0 acres. Peak Fire started on Sunday 30 August, 9.6 miles west, and has reached 0 acres. Old Stage Rd / Williams Rd Fire started on Saturday 29 August, 14.9 miles south-west, and has reached an unrecorded size. Williams Fire started on Saturday 29 August, 14.9 miles south-west, and has reached 0 acres. Their heat is counted against them, not against this fire, and the pale rings on the map mark where they are recorded.

Smoke has been recorded lying over this ground five times so far. The thickest of it was thin between 1:10pm and 4:30pm local time. The last of those windows closed 17 hours ago, so what is overhead now is not known.

No satellite heat has been attributed to this fire yet — either it is too new for a pass to have caught it, or it is too small to register from orbit. Everything above is from the interagency incident record and updates as that record does.
