Newfoundland and Labrador Wildfire Map
Newfoundland and Labrador combines an island and a vast mainland region with very different wildfire geography. FireRadar keeps the province's official incident information together while allowing users to add satellite context separately.

What FireRadar has observed in Newfoundland and Labrador
These are derived FireRadar archive statistics for direct-official Newfoundland and Labrador 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.
Data trust & freshness
- Source last updated
- FireRadar retrieved
- Page generated
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.
Newfoundland and Labrador source methodology
Provincial wildfire records are displayed only when a stable source record and usable public fields are available.
Status terminology
FireRadar preserves raw source meaning and normalizes display labels only where a documented source mapping exists.
Coverage limitations
Newfoundland and Labrador covers two geographically distinct regions. A province-wide total does not describe local smoke, access, or emergency conditions.

Newfoundland and Labrador wildfire FAQ
How many active wildfires are in Newfoundland and Labrador?
FireRadar currently counts 0 active direct-official records for Newfoundland and Labrador. The number can differ from other maps because datasets use different update times and inclusion rules.
Why can FireRadar and the official Newfoundland and Labrador 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 Newfoundland and Labrador 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 Newfoundland and Labrador 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
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 the provincial Forestry and Agrifoods public data. Status, cause, dates, and size are displayed only when the source supplies usable values.

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.
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.
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 Newfoundland and Labrador Forestry and Agrifoods, local emergency services, and official evacuation instructions for decisions affecting life or property.
