Agency fire reports updated
Straight-line distance from the Lismore monitor to the reported incident location, or to the mapped fire boundary where an agency has published one. A fire without a published boundary may extend closer than its reported location suggests.
Observed values come from this monitor. NASA GEOS-CF, CAMS and SILAM are independent total surface PM2.5 research forecasts sampled from their nearest grid cells; they are not blended with the observations.
