2026 Quebec wildfire season

Use this season hub to move between current direct-official wildfire activity, today's changes, FireRadar's retained observation history, smoke forecast, AQHI, and local community pages.

FireRadar's retained history begins when its archive observed a record. It does not claim to reconstruct agency data from before the FireRadar observation window.

Smoke and air quality during the 2026 season

Wildfire occurrence, forecast smoke, and measured AQHI are separate signals. A distant fire can produce local smoke, and local air quality can change after the fire map itself has not materially changed.
