1.9miles
is how close the heat has come to Keller at any point in the record. In the last day the nearest heat has been 1.9 miles from it, and the closest this fire has come to Nespelem is 10.8 miles, 10.8 in the last day. The two figures are the same because the record is barely a day long: the last day is very nearly all of it.

is the furthest any heat has been seen from the point on the
official record — the width of the ground involved so far.
Two other fires are burning inside the same view. Jack Creek II Fire started on Saturday 29 August, 2.6 miles south, and has reached 0 acres. Silver Creek Fire started on Saturday 5 September, 4.8 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.
One larger fire is burning outside this frame: Kaiser Canyon Fire 12.3 miles west at 138,293 acres. None of their heat is counted here.
Smoke has been recorded lying over this ground 20 times so far. The thickest of it was thick between 1:00pm and 4:30pm local time. The last of those windows closed 94 hours ago, so what is overhead now is not known.
