  The basic goal of this map page is to bring all publicly-available, fire-related Google Map overlays into one place.

  
  

  Some overlays may take a few seconds to load, so please be patient.

  
  

  Loading too many overlays at once will make the page run slowly. Some overlays may not display properly in that case.

  
  

  Satellite and radar loops may take a while to load. Stepping through the images using the right arrow on the time bar (upper left corner of the map) will help.

  
  

  Many of the weather overlays cover the entire United States. The fire overlays cover mainly the western United States. Webcams and basin boundaries are specific to California.

  
  

  Basin boundaries and webcam overlays are maintained by the page administrator. If there are any issues regarding these overlays, please contact the administrator.

  
  

  Webcam locations are approximate. Webcam images may not be current, and not all webcam images have time stamps. These images are not maintained nor controlled by the page administrator.

  
  

  Overlays that are provided by outside organizations are maintained by that organization, and the appearance and/or availability of these overlays cannot be controlled by the page administrator.
