Active Fire Map with Wind Overylay Info

We live in CA and the fires have been devastating and scary as hell. I've been using Gaia for several years and wondered after seeing your Snowfall Forecast Overlays if in fact you would be the company to take on this most important problem.
I use Google Earth to download the KML Satellite FIRE map and have been wondering how to get a Wind map overlaid onto this FIRE map. If Gaia could provide us with something like this, all the people in the CA foothills and forests might be interested in acquiring Gaia for their emergency evacuation routes.
Using both the Fire locations and Wind direction information would immediately inform those being affected as to possible directions and routes they should take in leaving their homes.

  Thanks for posting - I believe I responded to a similar comment you left on the '2017 Fire Maps' post.

  I can definitely see how having a wind direction and speed overlay would be helpful and we currently have an internal feature request open for adding such a layer.
