Satellite imagery has revealed the destruction caused by a fire that ripped through two Oregon towns on Tuesday. The Almeda Drive Fire—also known as the Glendower Fire— started on Tuesday morning at the north end of Ashland, a college town located in Jackson County, southern Oregon. The fire quickly spread north, tearing through large parts of Talent and engulfing Phoenix, destroying hundreds of homes and other buildings. By early Wednesday, the blaze had reached the southern outskirts of Medford.
周二,俄勒岡州的兩個城鎮發生了火災,衛星圖像顯示了火災造成的破壞。阿爾梅達大道大火,也叫格倫道爾大火,周二早上,在俄勒岡州南部杰克遜縣的大學城艾爾蘭,一場大火從北端開始肆虐。大火迅速向北蔓延,燒毀了塔倫特的大部分地區,吞沒了鳳凰城,數以百計的房屋和其他建筑毀于一旦。周三早些時候,大火已經蔓延到麥德福的南郊,

According to Oregon's Office of Emergency Management (OEM) the fire has burned more than 5,700 acres at the time of writing and remains zero percent contained. The satellite imagery shows the towns of Talent and Phoenix before and after the wildfire, revealing the extent of the destruction. In some of the photos, infrared imagery is used to highlight the damage. Burned vegetation and property appears in shades of black and grey, while healthy—i.e. not burned—fields and vegetation appears in shades of red.
俄勒岡州應急管理辦公室表示,截至聲明發表,大火已經燒毀了5700多英畝土地,目前火勢并未得到控制。衛星圖像顯示了野火前后的塔倫特和鳳凰城,揭示了破壞的程度。在一些照片中,紅外圖像用以突出顯示造成的損害。燃燒的植被和財物以黑色和灰色顯示,而健康的、未被燒毀的土地和植被以紅色陰影顯示。
"Basically, it looks like Phoenix and Talent are pretty well devastated," Medford Mayor Gary Wheeler told The Oregonian/OregonLive. "It looks like a lot of damage for those little towns." Chris Luz, the mayor of Phoenix—a town home to around 4,640 people—outlined the scale of the destruction after surveying the damage caused by the fire on Wednesday.
“如圖所示,鳳凰城和塔倫特基本上損失慘重,”麥德福市市長在接受俄勒岡現場新聞采訪時表示。“那些小城鎮也受到了很大打擊。”鳳凰城是一個有4640人的小鎮,鎮長克里斯·盧茲在周三調查了火災造成的損失后,概述了這次火災的規模。
