Wildfire in Utah: what to know
Utah's Wasatch Front interface and southern canyon country face rising fire risk amid prolonged drought and fast foothill development.
When fire risk peaks in Utah
Utah's fire season runs June through September. Drought and wind drive Wasatch Front and southern-Utah fires, peaking in mid-to-late summer.
Fire risk isn't the same everywhere in Utah — it varies street to street with terrain, vegetation, and how a home is built. The live map shows what’s burning today; your Utah fire risk map and your address's 0–100 score show what you face year-round.
Utah's fire activity is also reshaping insurance here: wasatch and southern-Utah WUI premiums have risen with drought and development; defensible space on Gambel oak and brush increasingly affects pricing. See the Utah fire insurance guide for carrier appetite, the FAIR Plan, and how mitigation lowers your premium.
If a wildfire threatens your area
- 1Get real-time alerts. Install Watch Duty and enable notifications for your county — it’s the fastest source for evacuation warnings and orders.
- 2Know your zone and routes. Look up your evacuation zone now and plan two ways out. Don’t wait for an order to leave if you feel unsafe.
- 3Pack a go-bag. Documents, medications, chargers, N95 masks, water, and pet supplies — ready by the door during fire season.
- 4Harden as you leave. If time allows: close windows and vents, move furniture from decks, and leave exterior lights on so crews can see your home in smoke.

Utah fire map FAQ
How many wildfires are burning in Utah right now?
The map and the "active wildfires" list above pull uncontained wildfires directly from the National Interagency Fire Center (NIFC). The count changes as fires start, grow, and are contained.
What does the Utah fire map show?
Live wildfire incidents reported to NIFC (the flame markers), plus optional layers you can toggle on: NOAA's smoke forecast, live air quality (AQI), and — in California — ALERTCalifornia wildfire cameras. Active NWS Red Flag Warnings are listed alongside the map.
What is a Red Flag Warning in Utah?
A Red Flag Warning is issued by the National Weather Service when warm temperatures, very low humidity, and strong winds combine to create critical fire-weather. Any new fire can spread explosively. We show active warnings above, live from the NWS.
Is this Utah fire map live, and can I rely on it for evacuations?
The map and data refresh from official feeds each time you load the page. But it is for awareness only — not an evacuation source. For evacuation orders, follow Watch Duty, your local fire authority, and 911.
