A wildfire started and spread quickly in the foothills northeast of Los Angeles on Jan. 16, 2014. The plume of smoke blanketed much of the metropolitan area and prompted air quality warnings across the region.

The Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) on NASA's Terra and Aqua satellites captured these images of the Colby fire in Angeles National Forest just before (top) and just after noon on January 16. The morning image is clearer because the scene was centered under the satellite, while the afternoon image is fuzzy because the satellite was observing from an angle.

According to InciWeb, the fire started around 6 a.m. Pacific Time on January 16 near the Glendora Mountain Road and the Colby Truck Trail in Glendora, California. As of 3 p.m. local time, nearly 500 firefighters were working the fire, which had destroyed 1,700 acres and at least two homes.
