Comments and notes on flight:
Tonight, we flew only the Northern half of the Creek fire perimeter and collected LWIR imagery. Heat Perimeter from 20201106 NIROPS products was used to generate tonight’s NIROPS products. For heat detection and perimeter updating we used 16-bit LWIR imagery only.
The most active heat and perimeter growth is in the East and Northeast. The West side is showing small amounts of isolated heat source. Today’s perimeter growth value is smaller than yesterdays. Most of the heat sources have been slowed due to the recent storms.
Monday Evening Update: 379,729 acres and 70% containment.
