New Brunswick Wildfire Map

New Brunswick's smaller geographic area makes province-wide wildfire activity easier to assess at a glance, but local conditions can still change quickly. FireRadar presents the official source rows with English display labels and source timing where available.

What FireRadar has observed in New Brunswick

Jul 20, 2026Aug 26, 2026 · 38 calendar days covered

These are derived FireRadar archive statistics for direct-official New Brunswick incident observations only. The coverage window is shown explicitly because the FireRadar archive is not a complete 2026 wildfire-season record.

Migration baseline fires can count toward the unique-fire archive universe but are never relabelled as first observed by FireRadar. Reported-size changes reflect source-reported incident values and are not cumulative area burned or a FireRadar fire-growth estimate.

These timestamps are intentionally separate: the responsible agency owns the source update, FireRadar records when it retrieved the data, and page generation does not replace either timestamp.

Province-specific questions

New Brunswick wildfire FAQ

How many active wildfires are in New Brunswick?

FireRadar currently counts 0 active direct-official records for New Brunswick. The number can differ from other maps because datasets use different update times and inclusion rules.

Why can FireRadar and the official New Brunswick map show different totals?

Source publication timing, status interpretation, duplicate handling, retained out-fire windows, and national fallback records can differ. FireRadar links back to the owning authority so users can verify the current official record.

Does a FireRadar marker show the exact edge of a New Brunswick wildfire?

Not necessarily. A marker may be a source-provided incident point or a matched reference location. Use an official perimeter when one is available and follow emergency authorities for decisions.

What this map shows

  • Active official fires: direct New Brunswick incident records where the source supplies them.
  • Recent out or extinguished fires: direct official records updated within FireRadar’s 48-hour recent-out window.
  • Reported hectares: summed only for active official records that contain a usable fire size.
  • Satellite hotspots: optional NASA FIRMS thermal detections, kept separate from official incidents.

Official source coverage

Direct official feed integrated

Integration coverage is separate from current source health. The live source summary above shows whether the direct feed is current, delayed, or unavailable right now.

Official wildfire records come from New Brunswick public data when available. Bilingual source values are normalized for the English FireRadar interface without inventing missing information.

How to use the New Brunswick wildfire map

1. Check the official layer

Start with direct official active-fire markers. Select a marker to inspect its status, reported size, source dates, and cause when those fields are available.

2. Add context deliberately

Enable recent out fires, satellite hotspots, or the CWFIS national view separately. These layers have different meanings and should not be added together as one incident total.

3. Search a local place

Search a community or address to open a nearby-activity preview with approximate straight-line distances to official fires and satellite detections.

Important safety note

FireRadar is an informational map, not an emergency notification or evacuation service. Data can be delayed, incomplete, or revised by the source. Follow Government of New Brunswick, local emergency services, and official evacuation instructions for decisions affecting life or property.
