Map of the pass
Channel 3 view of the data
Black areas are clouds.
Mesa Verde Area
The fire appears to have spread north from yesterday.
Southern California
This pass covers only part of southern
California and is the last NOAA-14 night pass that will
show this area from here for a few days.
The San Luis Obispo fire is the bright spot near the center of the west
edge of the pass.
The Stanislaus National Forest fire appears more fragmentary near the
top of this image. Another smaller fire is barely visible
and may be found from the hot spot finder map.
Three hot areas were detected for this area in this data set.
This map shows more detailed positions.
Montana
A very small fire appears to exist in the south east area.
Perhaps another small grass fire.
Utah
Four small possible fires are visible. To locate them
look at the Hot Spot Finder Map.
Oregon
Only part of Oregon is covered by this pass. Two hot spots
were detected.
