CA-SBC/LPF mid-Aug Lightning??

[Fire28]

Sounds like multiple lightning strike fires.

E330 has a 30ft spot near Alisal Guest Ranch.
E324 has multiple unknown size fires in Los Alamos.

BC16 requested callbacks for all stations in the north end of the county.

Can you explain the colors please? Is red confirmed strikes?

[Jimw360]

I believe its time related…

Legend in the top left shows time delay from strike it looks like. White is most recent, red about 2 hours prior

White are the latest strikes. The colors designate how long ago they occurred, until they disappear.

New cells developing farther east more towards the Ventura county line.

NOTE: Thanks for pointing that out, and proving that we are all a team here helping each other out. And, YES, once in a while even a Mod makes a spelling error. Carry on, everyone.

Here is another lightning map that takes the Blitz data but lets you have some additional topo map characteristics.
