Comments /notes on tonight’s mission and this interpretation: I incorporated GISS 8/6 perimeter updates.  The only perimeter covered tonight was the fire along the pit reservoir.  After incorporating GISS updates and mapping the only heat displayed on tonights imagery the total acre increase was 62 acres.  The GISS perimeter increases along with tonights 62 acres increases the fire to 4,198, although once again looking at the history of heat from previous nights interpretation indicates a larger heat perimeter.  As a test I merged all previous nights heat perimeters along with the GISS updates to total 6,881 acres although I will only posted tonights increase shapefiles to the ftp site unless the situation leader directs otherwise.  

The infrared operations where limited due to the overcast/ cloud cover.  The imagery only capured heat along the southwest end (east of oak flat) and the eastern edge of the fire perimeter near the pit reservoir.  The southwestern edge of the perimeter increase also displays intense heat.  The eastern edge of the fire is creeping along with some isolated heat sources just outside the east and southeastern edges of the fire.  There is a new perimeter inbetween the southeast and northeast quarters of section 21 (SE of Mud Spring).  The isolated heat sources where given X/Y coordinates, so Operations may download into GPS and navigate to these areas.
