Central Yukon smoke forecast
Use FireRadar's ECCC FireWork smoke forecast to see modelled smoke movement across and beyond Central Yukon. Forecast smoke is not proof that a nearby wildfire is the source of local smoke.
Track official wildfires and smoke across Central Yukon, including Carmacks, Mayo, Stewart River country, mining corridors, remote roads, and interior boreal forest.
Use the regional view to understand official incident geography across multiple communities, then compare forecast smoke and measured AQHI before drawing conclusions about local air quality.
This region uses an approximate FireRadar boundary and wildfire locations published by the source. It is not an emergency boundary, predicted spread area or municipal boundary.

Checking the latest official ECCC FireWork forecast status. Model issuance, forecast coverage and source status will appear when confirmed. Missing forecast data does not mean the air is clear.
Coverage: This is a regional forecast, not a local measurement. Smoke conditions can vary across Central Yukon.

Checking the latest official ECCC AQHI observation. The value, reporting location and observation time will appear when confirmed. Missing data does not mean the air is clean or the health risk is low.
Open the AQHI observation map →The dashed outline is FireRadar's curated regional counting extent. Incident points, smoke forecasts, and AQHI observations are separate datasets and should not be interpreted as evacuation boundaries or fire-spread predictions. FireRadar regional extents may overlap near transition areas. Regional totals are useful local summaries and must not be added together to produce a province total.
Central Yukon is a sparsely populated interior landscape of boreal forest, river valleys, Indigenous lands, mining and exploration areas, seasonal and all-weather roads, and widely separated communities. Wildfires can affect highway travel, aviation, work camps, traditional land use, community services, and smoke across large areas where alternate routes and nearby emergency resources are limited.

AQHI and observed PM2.5 provide measured air-quality context and remain distinct from FireWork forecast smoke. Station coverage varies across a region, especially in rural and remote areas.

FireRadar does not issue evacuation orders, emergency notices, road closures, or fire-spread predictions. Follow provincial, municipal, Indigenous, and emergency authorities for current instructions.
