Live NIFC data · re-checked every 5 minutes; agencies typically update a few times a day
Fire locations come from NIFC — you're seeing the newest official data there is: we pull the federal fire feeds every few minutes, as soon as agencies publish. Just know each flame marks where a fire was reported, not where its edge is right now — real fires spread, markers don't move, and details like acres update a few times a day, not in real time. In an emergency, always follow the official orders from your local authorities. Basemap © Mapbox © OpenStreetMap.
