WARNING this is another shameless SimTable plug. Simtable has been mapping some of the fire progressions. The tres Lagunas<http://apps.simtable.com/fireProgression/output2013/NM-N4S-HH9A_%20tres%20lagunas.html> fire burned for a while in the pecos watershed but now seems to be completely under control. The Thompson ridge fire<http://apps.simtable.com/fireProgression/output2013/NM-SNF-HJC4_%20thompson%20ridge.html> is burning slowly through the Valle Caldera, but I can't imagine there is much fuel left considering the massive fire 2 years ago. The Silver Fire<http://apps.simtable.com/fireProgression/output2013/NM-GNF-HJ20_%20silver.html>, is burning near silver city, in the Gila National Forest. Last but not least, the Jaroso fire<http://apps.simtable.com/fireProgression/output2013/NM-SNF-HJ7C_%20jaroso.html> burned nearly to the top of Pecos baldy and produced a huge "pyrocumulus" smoke cloud for one day. It looked like a volcano went off All of the fires seem to be under control after the much needed rains last week.
