Fires near Lalitpur right now
NASA's VIIRS sensors detected 64 thermal hotspots in 13 separate clusters within 80 km of Lalitpur, Uttar Pradesh, India in the last 48 h. The closest is 41 km W of the city centre (45 km W of Lalitpur), with 2 detections and a peak fire radiative power of 3 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.
The largest nearby cluster by detections is 64 km W (43 km ENE of Guna) with 41 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 Lalitpur is from the WSW at 3 km/h (gusts 5 km/h), so smoke near the city drifts toward the ENE. Relative humidity is 69% and the temperature 22°C.
Lalitpur 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 Lalitpur 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.
