Summary edit

Description
English: A fire burning in Arizona’s Tonto National Forest for over two weeks continues to grow rapidly, despite the deployment of approximately 900 personnel. According to Inciweb, on June 24, 2019, the Woodbury Fire has consumed 112,899 Acres of abundant fully dried, native and invasive grasses, brush, and chaparral in the Superstition Wilderness located about 5 miles northwest of Superior, Arizona. The fire, which ignited on Saturday July 8 at about 1:30 p.m., is reported at only 25% contained. Estimated perimeter containment date is currently July 15. The Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) on board NASA’s Aqua satellite acquired a true-color image of the Woodbury Fire on June 23, 2019. Red hot spots mark areas where the thermal bands on the instrument detected high temperatures. When combined with typical smoke, as in this image, such hot spots mark actively burning fire. Smoke is rising nearly straight upwards from the active fire areas.
