California Wildfire Map: Live FIRMS in a Browser

A useful California wildfire view is FIRMS zoomed to the state—not every global layer at once. On GodsView AI: All off, Active Fires, optionally Earthquakes on a hazard desk. Zoom to California, click clusters, read detection times.

GodsView AI Layers panel with only Earthquakes and Active Fires turned on

Then open CAL FIRE, InciWeb, or local incident pages for perimeters, containment, and evacuations. FIRMS is satellite-detected heat. Agricultural and prescribed burns also appear—describe detections accurately in captions.
