Wildfire context for Comox Valley Regional District
The Comox Valley includes populated coastal communities, agricultural land, extensive forested uplands, rural interface properties, mountain recreation, watersheds, and major Island travel routes. Fires in the interior forest can matter to access, utilities, outdoor activity, and smoke even when coastal neighbourhoods are far from the incident.
Smoke forecast, air quality and fire weather
Smoke forecasts, measured AQHI and Fire Danger ratings describe different conditions. FireRadar shows each separately so one is not mistaken for another.
Official wildfire source for British Columbia
Official incident markers come from the BC Wildfire Service feed. Marker locations are informational and do not replace official emergency notices or local emergency instructions.
Emergency, closure, and travel information
FireRadar is an informational wildfire map. It does not issue evacuation instructions, park closures, road closures, travel advisories, fire bans, campground or trail status, or fire-spread predictions. Follow the applicable provincial, territorial, municipal, Indigenous, parks, transportation, and emergency authorities for operational decisions.
