Pouch Fire

The official record as of 9:09am today

The Pouch Fire is on the interagency wildfire record at 19 acres in San Luis Obispo County, California. 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 0.8 miles from the fire: 84°F, air at 12% humidity, a 2 mph wind out of the north-east.

Six other fires are burning inside the same view. Stenner Fire started on Monday 21 September, 0.6 miles north-east, and has reached 0 acres. Dairy Fire started on Friday 25 September, 3.0 miles north-west, and has reached 0 acres. Grade Fire started on Wednesday 23 September, 3.8 miles east, and has reached 33 acres. Fire Wildland Fire started on Tuesday 8 September, 4.7 miles south, and has reached 0 acres. Gilardi Fire started on Saturday 29 August, 5.0 miles north-west, and has reached 0 acres. Brava Fire started on Sunday 30 August, 10.4 miles south, and has reached 10 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 five times so far. The thickest of it was thin between 5:00am and 8:00am local time. The last of those windows closed 17 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.
