      Shows two major fires in the oil facilities in Oregon, Ohio, BUT, no fires reported by local News.
      Maybe y'all need some better data?

        Could you be more specific about the places? I can see some fires on the Active Fire map (NASA FIRMS).

          @olddocking Remember, FIRMS data shows radiative power, or heat signatures. Not necessarily a confirmed fire - just a lot of heat.
