Other helpful tools
A few independent tools people find useful for visualizing wildfire activity. These aren't run by this site or by government agencies, so always cross-check anything time-sensitive against the official sources above.
- Watch DutyA free, ad-free wildfire and flood tracking app run by a nonprofit, staffed by current and retired first responders. Widely used and trusted, including by emergency operations centers.watchduty.org
- Commercial wildfire map toolsSome private companies, often ones selling home wildfire-protection products, also publish free interactive fire maps as a way to attract visitors. These can still be handy for a quick visual, but the maps usually aren't official data sources, may not be live, and the sites are commercial in nature. Verify anything important against the official sources above before acting on it.
