Two other fires are burning inside the same view. Ranch Creek Fire started on Monday 24 August, 4.0 miles south-east, and has reached 0 acres. Salt Creek Fire started on Saturday 10 October, 14.8 miles north-east, 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 four times so far. The thickest of it was thin between 6:20am and 9:00am local time. The last of those windows closed 140 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.
