Active fires in Brazil
Satellites detected 8,024 thermal hotspots in Brazil in the last 24 h, grouped into 1,409 fire clusters. 21 clusters reached an intense fire radiative power above 100 MW.
The most active fire is 100 km SE of Santarém with 1,353 detections and a peak of 104 MW, last seen Sun 2:41 pm local time.
By region, Pará has 404 clusters (4,478 detections), Amazonas has 159 clusters (641 detections), Acre has 144 clusters (625 detections).
Fires are assigned to the country of the nearest listed city, so a fire close to a border can appear under the neighbour.

Official information
The Global Wildfire Information System, GWIS (gwis.jrc.ec.europa.eu), maps fire danger and burnt areas worldwide; evacuation orders come from national civil protection and local authorities.
Satellite thermal hotspots are not all wildfires: gas flares, steel works, volcanoes and planned agricultural or prescribed burns show up too. VIIRS passes over most places about twice a day, so a fire can start or grow between passes, and thick smoke or cloud can hide one.
