The Canyon Fire in Southern California continued to grow and burn on Friday afternoon, after forcing thousands of residents across parts of Los Angeles and Ventura Counties to evacuate.

Firefighters have reached 25% containment against the fast-moving Canyon fire, which exploded to nearly 5,000 acres late Thursday, forcing thousands to evacuate.

VIIRS/MODIS satellite hotspot data is updated daily in the morning with the red dots indicating which direction the fire is moving. The color of the dots shows how recent the data is (red is today, orange yesterday, yellow two days old). Perimeter data is updated by Cal Fire twice daily.
