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 ten times so far. The thickest of it was moderate between 1:10pm and 4:30pm local time. The last of those windows closed 23 hours ago, so what is overhead now is not known.
Where the heat is
No cluster large enough to call a separate front. The heat is in one piece.
Conditions measured 10.3 miles from the fire: 72°F, air at 23% humidity, a 3 mph wind out of the north-east.
How it got here
One day of record on a day-43 fire
The record here begins at 2:29pm on 4 Oct and runs to 2:29pm on 4 Oct — 0 hours, 1 readings of heat. The fire is on day 43, so the first 42 days are missing: nothing showed up from above until the fire was large enough and the sky over it clear enough for it to be seen. There is no long arc to draw yet. What follows is what has actually happened.
