The official record as of 9:09am today

Four other fires are burning inside the same view. Wildcat 2 Fire started on Saturday 19 September, 6.4 miles south, and has reached an unrecorded size. Forester Fire started on Saturday 26 September, 13.1 miles south, and has reached 1 acres. Fa/Drd Fire started on Friday 11 September, 13.3 miles south-east, and has reached 0 acres. Harbison Fire started on Saturday 5 September, 13.6 miles south, 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 nine 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.

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.
