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.
Regional context
Wildfire context across Central Yukon
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.

Latest completed comparison
What changed around Central Yukon
Matched regional examples from FireRadar's completed 2026-08-13 → 2026-08-14 direct-official comparison. The retained incident-detail list is intentionally bounded, so absence here is not presented as proof that nothing changed in the region.
No regional incident from the bounded daily detail list matched a current source-provided point inside this extent. Use the province comparison for the complete jurisdiction-level counts.
Measured conditions
Air quality and AQHI
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.
