Active fires in Manitoba
NASA's VIIRS satellites detected 45 thermal hotspots in Manitoba in the last 48 h, grouped into 17 fire clusters; 9 of them are significant (a peak of 10 MW or more, or 3+ detections). That is 16% of the 109 clusters across Canada.
The most intense is 64 km SW of Morden, peaking at 44 MW (moderate) with 2 detections, last seen Sun 2:39 pm local time. No cluster in the province passed 100 MW, so these look like smaller fires, prescribed or agricultural burns rather than a large spreading fire.
9 listed cities in Manitoba have a detection within 80 km; the closest is Selkirk, 2 km from a fire to its SW.
Fires are assigned to the province of the nearest listed city, so a fire close to a border can show under the neighbouring province.

Official fire information and evacuations
GodsView shows satellite detections only, not fire perimeters, containment or evacuation zones. Follow orders from local authorities.
CIFFC (ciffc.net) publishes the national wildfire situation; provincial fire status and evacuation alerts come from Manitoba Wildfire Service (gov.mb.ca/wildfire). Alertable and local emergency alerts carry evacuation orders.
About this fire map
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.
