Fires near Chanduasi right now
NASA's VIIRS sensors detected 20 thermal hotspots in 13 separate clusters within 80 km of Chanduasi, Uttar Pradesh, India in the last 48 h. The closest is 24 km NW of the city centre (8 km ENE of Sambhal), with 1 detection and a peak fire radiative power of 4 MW, which is low-intensity for a single 375 m pixel.
1 cluster is within 25 km, close enough that smoke, ash or road closures may affect the city. Distances are measured from the city centre to the nearest detection, not to the fire's edge.
The largest nearby cluster by detections is 69 km NE (13 km WNW of Rudrapur) with 5 detections; first seen Sat 1 pm and last seen Sun 1 pm local time.
Across India there are 659 fire clusters in the same window, 141 of them in Uttar Pradesh.

Smoke and wind
Wind at Chanduasi is from the WNW at 7 km/h (gusts 12 km/h), so smoke near the city drifts toward the ESE. Relative humidity is 80% and the temperature 19°C.
Chanduasi is roughly downwind of the nearest fire, so smoke and haze are likely; check the air quality page before spending time outdoors.
Smoke shows up first as PM2.5 on air-quality monitors; the Chanduasi 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.
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.
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.
