<p>I don't know much myself.. there is a local (pilot?) who is
tracking things (on the new Caja fire) closely (because the fire
is close to the airport?) and is apparently flying over right now:</p>

<p>Stephen has a "crew" of students photographing the Medio fire and
there are a few reports coming through twitter on <br>

<p>Google just started publishing KML for MODIS (and other satellite
imaging)</p>

<p>I've been trying to photograph (to contribute above) plumes from
*my* side of the valley... here IN the valley and up the Los
Alamos Hill perspective but the smoke is so pervasive that I
really haven't been able to identify a "plume" from Rio en Medio
in days. My ISP (CNSP) is a tight-beam from Tesuque Peak and I
understand from them that they are running on generator power
there, so I'm (vaguely) expecting to lose internet "soon"...</p>
<p>I get the feeling that the Pacheco burn scar from years ago has
provided a modest fire-break.</p>
<p>Any evacuations from direct fire-threat would obviously be most
likely in the Tesuque hills area, though *smoke* might lead folks
to want to evacuate otherwise. I drove into Pojoaque yesterday
and the smoke was pretty harsh there (just downhill/down-watershed
from the fire)... it sounds like SFe is getting it too... with the
Caja (much smaller, less fuel) on the opposite side of town, it
might mean that shifting winds just change which smoke you get?</p>
<p>Los Alamos is "up above" most of the smoke from my perspective...</p>
<p>Stephen can probably vouch better for how well SFe's emergency
alert system works... but here is their link ifyou don't have it:<br>

<p>I hope this is somehow helpful...</p>

possibility of evacuations in Santa Fe in anything?
