Agency fire reports updated
Straight-line distance from the Singleton South 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.
This monitor reports PM10, while NASA GEOS-CF, CAMS and SILAM predict total surface PM2.5 at the nearest model grid cells. The forecast may provide useful local context, but it is a different particle-size measurement and is not a continuation of the observed PM10 line.
