Wrapping up: Get your satellite fire map here!

The last week has been intense with all the interest in satellite mapping of the Northern California firestorm. And I’ve updated the imagery in the map a few times, prioritizing recency, sometimes at the expense of visual clarity (curse you Smoke!). I’ve tried to strike a decent balance.

Red = veg

Pease remember that red in the false color images shows vegetation, NOT fires. A lot of people have misinterpreted this and gotten needlessly worried. Not surprising given all the stress we’ve been under. but I don’t want to add to it!

Go here to browse the map.
