Idol Fire

The official record as of 10:09am today

The Idol Fire is on the interagency wildfire record at 1 acres in Crook County, Wyoming. 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 8.3 miles from the fire: 38°F, air at 83% humidity, a 2 mph wind out of the north-east.

Three other fires are burning inside the same view. Buck Hollow Fire started on Monday 28 September, 6.0 miles west, and has reached 1 acres. Lost Canyon Fire started on Wednesday 15 April, 13.2 miles south, and has reached 0 acres. Spearfish Peak Fire started on Monday 14 September, 14.5 miles east, 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 seven times so far. The thickest of it was thin between 2:10pm and 5:30pm local time. The last of those windows closed 121 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.
