Fires near Beloeil right now

NASA's VIIRS sensors detected 14 thermal hotspots in 6 separate clusters within 80 km of Beloeil, Quebec, Canada in the last 24 h. The closest is 26 km WNW of the city centre (5 km E of Rivière-des-Prairies–Pointe-aux-Trembles), with 1 detection and a peak fire radiative power of 1 MW, which is low-intensity for a single 375 m pixel.

None of the clusters is within 25 km of the centre, so the city itself is not in the immediate fire area, but smoke can travel hundreds of kilometres.

Every nearby cluster is low intensity (peak under 10 MW), which is typical of agricultural or garden burning, industrial heat sources such as steel works or flares, or small fires rather than a spreading wildfire.

The largest nearby cluster by detections is 28 km N (6 km SSE of Lavaltrie) with 5 detections; first seen Thu 2 am and last seen Fri 2 am local time.

Across Canada there are 87 fire clusters in the same window, 8 of them in Quebec.

Smoke and wind

Current wind data was unavailable for this page; smoke generally drifts with the wind, so check local conditions.

Smoke shows up first as PM2.5 on air-quality monitors; the Beloeil air quality page has the live reading.

Evacuations and official information

GodsView shows satellite detections only. It does not know fire perimeters, containment or evacuation zones. Always follow evacuation orders from local authorities.

CIFFC (ciffc.net) publishes the national wildfire situation; provincial fire status and evacuation alerts come from SOPFEU (sopfeu.qc.ca). Alertable and local emergency alerts carry evacuation orders.

About satellite fire detections

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.

Fire radiative power (FRP) is the heat a fire gives off, in megawatts per pixel: under 10 MW is usually a small or smouldering fire, over 100 MW an intense flaming front.
