The Lookout (https://www.youtube.com/@TheLookout1 https://www.youtube.com/@TheLookout1 and https://the-lookout.org https://the-lookout.org), by Zeke Lunder, is a great resource for learning about wildfire. Zeke spent many years doing GIS / cartography onsite for wildfire fighting efforts. My neighbor, who spent 40 years in the USFS doing fire fighting and prevention, pointed Zeke out to me saying, "This guy really understands fire." Zeke does great live streams during large wildfires, explaining what is happening with webcams and mapping of near-realtime data. It's crazy to watch him triangulate smoke plumes from multiple webcams and then correlate that with cartographic data put out by the agencies fighting the fire. His experience is obvious when you see how calmly, quickly, and rationally he evaluates devastating situations.
