Moose Mountain Fire

The official record as of 10:09am today

The Moose Mountain Fire is on the interagency wildfire record at 2 acres in Larimer County, Colorado. 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 9.1 miles from the fire: 42°F, air at 61% humidity, a 6 mph wind out of the north-east.

Five other fires are burning inside the same view. Burnett Gulch Fire started on Monday 7 September, 2.8 miles east, and has reached 3 acres. Spring Gulch Fire started on Thursday 8 October, 2.8 miles south-east, and has reached 1 acres. Dry Creek Fire started on Tuesday 6 October, 8.1 miles south, and has reached 6 acres. Iron Clad Fire started on Monday 24 August, 12.5 miles south-west, and has reached 1 acres. Ironclad Fire started on Monday 24 August, 12.5 miles south-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 once so far. The thickest of it was thin between 6:00am and 9:00am 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.
