Narrative:

I performed an unmanned aircraft operation lasting 4 minutes and 46 seconds reaching a maximum altitude of 144 feet AGL travelling a maximum distance of 800 ft. The purpose of the flight was to survey damage to our second residence. Prior to travelling to the area; I had checked for a tfr and found one active in the area with a 5 NM radius. My planned area of flight was approximately 2 NM outside of the published tfr map and not within the vicinity of any active firefighting activities as they had moved back into the area. After completing the flight and returning home; I was self-debriefing and discovered the tfr had been expanded to cover the area of my operation just prior to my flight. Since no firefighting or emergency response activities were occurring in the area at the time of the flight; I had no reason to believe the original tfr was not still valid. Due to the lack of cellular data service in the area; I would not have been able to access updated tfr information prior to the operation. No conflicts or accidents occurred as a result of my operation.
