as you can see @ 09:25 and 20:25 UTC the next MODIS satellite pictures will be shot. i don't know how long it takes NASA to actually post them on the MODIS website @ NASA MODIS Website:


It looks like that there's a 2-3h lag until the pictures get posted.

Overlay is cropped. 250m/pixel. Photographed @ 9:20 UTC (Zulu), 11:20 CET, 5:20am EST.

Overlay preview @4km/pixel:

Download the "View in Google Earth" link, unzip and open in Google Earth.

PS: This overlay is not the most precise i have created. sorry for that... it is very distorted since NASA hasn't "cleaned" it up. they will clean it up and post it in the MODIS rapid response section. But for now this is the only satellite image available from this morning.

still active fire spots:

NASA just updated the daily MODIS rapid response page. Screenshot of true color overlay:

NASA just updated the daily MODIS rapid response page. Screenshot of NVDI color overlay:

NVDI=Normalized Difference Vegetation Index. I think it means that the browner the less water the vegetation holds.

NASA just updated the daily MODIS rapid response page. Screenshot of 721 color overlay:

721=721 band to RGB mapping.

Overlay is for the 29th, screenshot below from the 30th!

The overall situation has considerably improved and there's one wildfire left.

only 1 major fires is still active:
