Fires near Eugene right now
No VIIRS thermal hotspots were detected within 80 km of Eugene, Oregon, United States in the last 48 h. The nearest detection cluster is about 131 km N (3 km NE of McMinnville), with 2 detections. A clear result only covers satellite passes: small fires, fires under cloud and fires that start after the last overpass will not show yet.
Across United States there are 576 fire clusters in the same window, 5 of them in Oregon.
Smoke and wind
Wind at Eugene is from the ENE at 5 km/h (gusts 8 km/h), so smoke near the city drifts toward the WSW. Relative humidity is 92% and the temperature 11°C.
Smoke shows up first as PM2.5 on air-quality monitors; the Eugene 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.
InciWeb (inciweb.wildfire.gov) lists federal wildfire incidents; in this state also check the Oregon Department of Forestry (oregon.gov/odf). Evacuation orders come from county sheriffs and emergency management, often via Genasys Protect (protect.genasys.com) or local alert apps.
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.
