Episode narrativeepisode_narrativeConditions were very favorable for wildfire spread ahead of a cold front during the day of February 16th. Strong, gusty southerly winds combined with cured ground fuels from several freeze events from the previous weeks allowed for rapid wildfire growth. The 755 wildfire, in the south central portion of the county, ignited on February 16th around 2:00PM CST and continued until 1:00PM CST on February 18th when it was announced it was 100 percent contained. The fire consumed a total of 2,000 acres.
Event narrativeevent_narrativeThe event known as the 755 Wildfire was estimated to have initiated around 2:00PM CST south of Encino, TX near the intersection of US-281 and FM 755. It burned until the afternoon of the 18th when it was announced to be 100 percent contained at 2:00PM CST. This wildfire consumed a total of 2,000 acres. A Spot Request submitted by the Texas A&M Fire Service on February 16th and the GOES-16 Day Land Cloud Fire RGB channel were used as a guide for the ignition time and very rapid spread that followed.
