Fires near Hashtsāl right now
NASA's VIIRS sensors detected 18 thermal hotspots in 14 separate clusters within 80 km of Hashtsāl, Delhi, India in the last 48 h. The closest is 17 km NNW of the city centre (11 km NNW of Kirāri Sulemānnagar), with 1 detection and a peak fire radiative power of 5 MW, which is low-intensity for a single 375 m pixel.
4 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.
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 21 km WNW (8 km WNW of Bahadurgarh) with 2 detections; first seen Sun 1 am and last seen Sun 1 am local time.
Across India there are 659 fire clusters in the same window, 3 of them in Delhi.

Smoke and wind
Wind at Hashtsāl is from the WNW at 6 km/h (gusts 10 km/h), so smoke near the city drifts toward the ESE. Relative humidity is 77% and the temperature 20°C.
Hashtsāl is not directly downwind of the nearest fire at the moment, though winds shift and plumes from larger fires can still reach the city.
Smoke shows up first as PM2.5 on air-quality monitors; the Hashtsāl 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.
