Recent Extinguished Wildfires in Canada
This page isolates recent official wildfire records that FireRadar classifies into its out or extinguished layer. It helps show incidents that have recently left the active-fire view without turning the map into a long-term historical fire archive.
What this map shows
Recently closed incident records
Markers come from direct official feeds where a record is supplied with an out, extinguished, inactive, declared-out, or equivalent status.
A limited display window
FireRadar currently retains qualifying out or extinguished records on the public map for approximately five days.
Active fires stay separate
Official active fires, CWFIS records, and satellite hotspots start turned off so recently closed incidents are easy to distinguish.
How to interpret it
Out does not mean risk-free
Conditions, access restrictions, smoke, damaged infrastructure, or local emergency measures may remain after an incident status changes.
Source wording varies
Jurisdictions use different labels and operational definitions. FireRadar groups documented equivalents for a consistent display layer.
Not a historical database
Older fires disappear from this layer after the current display window and should not be treated as a complete record of past wildfire activity.
Coverage and limitations
This layer depends on direct official sources continuing to publish recently closed records and useful timestamps. Some jurisdictions may remove incidents quickly, use different terminology, or not expose an out-fire record through the same feed. A zero count can mean no qualifying recent records were supplied; it does not describe the full wildfire history of Canada.
Data source
FireRadar presents this view using Direct provincial and territorial wildfire sources. The interactive map is informational and may not reflect source changes immediately.
