Perimeter polygons
The mapped areas come from the public layer used for CAL FIRE’s incident map. They are periodically fetched and cached for up to ten minutes. Boundaries are simplified for website performance.

California Wildfire Perimeter Map
Explore published CAL FIRE / FIRIS / NIFC fire-perimeter geometries on our own interactive map. Tap a perimeter or choose a named incident for details. This layer is not a complete list of active fires, not a real-time satellite feed, and not an evacuation map. Fire conditions and official orders may change faster than mapping feeds.

Latest official instructions
For evacuations, shelter locations and road closures, follow your county sheriff, emergency management agency, fire officials and Caltrans QuickMap. An absent polygon does not mean the area is safe.
Weather & fire danger
See our NWS alert dashboard and county weather forecasts. A Red Flag Warning describes potential fire weather; it is not itself a reported fire.
