Comments /notes on tonight’s mission and this interpretation: I began with a shapefile from the prior day’s IR for the Sapphire Complex. Cloud cover over the incident today caused significant data detection issues. Goat Creek incident was not visible, nor was portion of Little Hogback. I tried to delineate on the map areas where data was not available. Slide Rock continues to have a small amount of scattered heat along the southern edge. Little Hogback has areas of intense heat consistently along the northern edge of the fire. Scattered still remains throughout the fire area, determination was difficult tonight given the cloud cover. Acreages for each fire are the following: Slide Rock – 875 Acres Goat Creek – 8,324 Acres Little Hogback – 29,654 Acres Please let me know if there are any questions, comments or requests for additional IR products. Thank you.
