Near infrared satellite view through the smoke from yesterday. Burn scar of the Old Trails fire matches the official fire perimeter pretty closely.

People need to stop flying drones over active fire zones: "A temporary flight restriction (TFR) remains in place over the Spokane Area Fires. Yesterday, there were 26 reported UAS incursions into the fire area. These incursions significantly impact fire operations as aircraft managers could suspend aerial firefighting suppression operations which jeopardize firefighting crews and the public. All unauthorized UAS flights over wildfires will be reported to the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and law enforcement agencies. Remember, if you fly, we can’t!" #Spokane #SpokaneFires
