Four other fires are burning inside the same view. Woolley Fire started on Tuesday 11 August, 3.9 miles west, and has reached 123 acres. Buffalo Fire started on Saturday 25 July, 7.7 miles west, and has reached an unrecorded size. Four Corner Fire started on Tuesday 8 September, 9.7 miles west, and has reached 665 acres with 44 people assigned. Larry Fire started on Tuesday 8 September, 9.7 miles 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 four times so far. The thickest of it was thin between 6:00am and 9:00am local time. The last of those windows closed 171 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
