Station Fire Maps, Google Earth Views

 
The Station Fire ice capped mid afternoon providing Southern Californians with a spectacular view of the fast growing blaze. Everyone in the Southland can see this fire.

I grabbed the images below from Google Earth using the USFS kml files from the MODIS Active Fire Program site.

Thanks for the great info. I'm watching this fire from my home (we are not in any danger, but have a clear view). Also, thought you may like to see some of the pictures I took throughout the day. I uploaded them to twitpic:

Thanks, again for the great info.
