Okanagan wildfire map & smoke conditions
Track official wildfires, smoke forecast, and air-quality conditions across the Okanagan from Osoyoos and Penticton through Kelowna to Vernon and the North Okanagan.
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.

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.

Wildfire context across Okanagan
The Okanagan combines dry grassland, forested slopes, dense wildland-urban interface, major north-south transportation corridors, agriculture, tourism, and rapidly growing communities. A regional view is useful because wildfire impacts, smoke, highway disruption, and incident response frequently cross individual municipal boundaries while remaining much more locally meaningful than a province-wide map.

What changed around Okanagan

Forecast layer
Okanagan smoke forecast
Use FireRadar's ECCC FireWork smoke forecast to see modelled smoke movement across and beyond Okanagan. Forecast smoke is not proof that a nearby wildfire is the source of local smoke.
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.

Official source and emergency information
Official incident markers come from the BC Wildfire Service feed. Marker locations are informational and do not replace official emergency notices or local emergency instructions.
FireRadar does not issue evacuation orders, emergency notices, road closures, or fire-spread predictions. Follow provincial, municipal, Indigenous, and emergency authorities for current instructions.
