Gimlet Fire

The official record as of 9:09am today

The Gimlet Fire is on the interagency wildfire record at 1 acres in Baker County, Oregon. 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 14.0 miles from the fire: 48°F, air at 67% humidity, a 1 mph wind out of the north-east.

Six other fires are burning inside the same view. McCulley Fire started 42 minutes before this one, 7.0 miles north, and has reached 1,202 acres with 92 people assigned. McCully Fire started 42 minutes before this one, 7.0 miles north, and has reached 13,604 acres with 84 people assigned. Olive Butte Fire started on Wednesday 8 July, 8.3 miles west, and has reached 3,092 acres. North Pole Fire started 18 minutes before this one, 9.2 miles north-east, and has reached 310 acres with 81 people assigned. Buck Gulch Fire started on Wednesday 8 July, 10.3 miles west, and has reached 0 acres. Salmon Fire started on Wednesday 8 July, 11.1 miles west, and has reached 1,433 acres with 11 people assigned. 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 once so far. The thickest of it was thin between 1:10pm and 4:30pm local time. The last of those windows closed 233 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.
