46.086, -117.161lat, lon

is the official point of origin on the interagency record.

Conditions measured 13.2 miles from the fire: 70°F, air at 28% humidity, a 3 mph wind out of the south-west.

Two other fires are burning inside the same view. Apple Fire started on Tuesday 25 August, 10.1 miles south-west, and has reached 0 acres. Ayers Fire started on Tuesday 1 September, 13.7 miles north, and has reached 15 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 three times so far. The thickest of it was moderate between 1:10pm and 4:30pm local time. The last of those windows closed 25 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.

How the record has moved

Each step is a change on the interagency incident record — acreage, containment or crews — with the date it was reported. No satellite reading is involved.
