Agency fire reports updated
Straight-line distance from the Katherine centre 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.
The observed line is the hourly median across reporting monitors and the shaded range shows local variation. NASA GEOS-CF, CAMS and SILAM are separate total surface PM2.5 research forecasts sampled near the Katherine locality centre. They are not smoke-only, official health forecasts or blended with observations.
