The #FireMappers wildfire map displayed above draws on multiple sources including satellite imagery and agency websites to provide updated information on wildland fires in California and other Western states.
The size of each round icon correlates to the acreage burned, and the red-on-yellow icons mark the newest fires. Areas of solid pink are under red-flag warnings, indicating heightened risk of wildland fires. The full legend for the map can be found by clicking the list icon at the upper right.
This is not an evacuation map. Residents in wildfire areas should follow the evacuation instructions of law enforcement agencies and fire managers.
