Fires near Firozpur right now
NASA's VIIRS sensors detected 44 thermal hotspots in 19 separate clusters within 80 km of Firozpur, Punjab, India in the last 48 h. The closest is 21 km NNW of the city centre (10 km E of Kasur), with 1 detection and a peak fire radiative power of 4 MW, which is low-intensity for a single 375 m pixel.
2 clusters are 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 70 km WSW (31 km NE of Haveli Lakha) with 7 detections; first seen Sat 1 pm and last seen Sun 2 pm local time.
Across India there are 659 fire clusters in the same window, 34 of them in Punjab.

Smoke and wind
Wind at Firozpur is from the NW at 5 km/h (gusts 9 km/h), so smoke near the city drifts toward the SE. Relative humidity is 82% and the temperature 19°C.
Firozpur 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 Firozpur 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.
