California fire evacuation FAQ

How do I find my evacuation zone in California?

Search your address in Genasys Protect (protect.genasys.com), the evacuation-zone platform used across much of the West, to see your California zone and whether it’s under a Warning or Order. Watch Duty also shows zones during active fires. Use the "Check my location" tool on this page for live alerts at your exact point.

Is California under any fire evacuation orders right now?

Evacuation orders in California are issued locally and change quickly. Use the "Check my location" tool above for live NWS alerts at your point and the nearest active fire, then confirm your official zone status with the tools listed on this page.

What should I do if my California zone is under an Evacuation Warning?

Be ready to leave at a moment’s notice. If you have animals, mobility needs, or medical equipment, leave during the warning rather than waiting for an order. Pack your go-bag, fuel your vehicle, and monitor official sources.

FireRisk.ai is for awareness, not emergency guidance, and does not issue evacuation orders. Live data: NIFC and the National Weather Service. For official California evacuation orders, use Genasys Protect, Watch Duty, CAL FIRE incidents, and your county — and call 911 in an emergency.
