FireRadar Plus overview
One dashboard for every important place.
Wildfire Watch brings supported situation context together for each dashboard location. Focused Alerts separately monitor an individual fire, route or condition.
After setup
FireRadar keeps dashboard locations and focused Alerts current.When a supported update meets the applicable configuration, FireRadar uses the email, browser or SMS delivery methods you enabled.
Alert timing depends on source updates. FireRadar alerts are not emergency notifications.

Important limits
Always check before you travel
Route alerts help you notice supported changes. They do not replace the responsible transportation authority or emergency instructions.
Missing information does not mean open. Delayed or unavailable road information is never presented as confirmation that a road is open.
Weather and wildfires are separate. They provide context but do not change the road status published by the transportation authority.
Always confirm before travel. Check the current highway page and follow road-authority and emergency instructions.
Questions and answers
Route alerts FAQ
What stays free?
Current highway conditions, cameras, weather and wildfire context remain public and ad-free. Route alerts are included with FireRadar Plus.
What can a Route alert monitor?
On supported routes, you can select official closures, reopenings and major restrictions. Plus can also include supported severe-weather and nearby-wildfire conditions.
Does a Route alert decide whether a road is safe?
No. The responsible transportation authority remains authoritative. FireRadar never infers an open or safe road from missing data, predicts delay duration, or lets environmental context override the official road state.
Where are Route alerts available?
Route alerts currently support selected routes in British Columbia and Ontario. Available conditions vary with each transportation authority's published information.
