Peachland Wildfire Smoke Map
Track hourly wildfire-smoke forecast guidance around Peachland, Okanagan Lake, and the Central Okanagan with FireRadar's FireWork map.
How to read smoke around Peachland
Peachland is compressed between Okanagan Lake and steep, dry forested slopes on the west side of the valley. Smoke can come from nearby Central Okanagan incidents, the South Okanagan, Thompson, or much farther away, and lake-to-slope wind transitions can shift a plume quickly. Terrain and elevation can also make upland and lakeshore conditions differ, so the regional FireWork forecast should be read alongside current air-quality observations.
Forecast, not a measurement
FireWork estimates near-surface PM2.5 attributable to wildfire smoke. It can differ from actual conditions around Peachland because emissions, wind, terrain, mixing, precipitation, and model timing change. Use current AQHI observations and local health advisories when conditions matter to health.
A focused starting view, not a clipped dataset
This page starts the national FireRadar layer around Peachland. The underlying FireWork smoke field is not clipped to municipal boundaries, so nearby conditions remain visible as you pan or zoom. FireRadar does not infer a uniform value inside a city boundary.
Health and safety limitation
FireRadar is an informational environmental map. Follow Environment and Climate Change Canada, provincial health agencies, local public-health guidance, and emergency authorities for health or safety decisions. This page does not diagnose exposure, determine whether outdoor activity is safe, or predict individual health effects.
