Fires near Nossa Senhora de Fátima right now
NASA's VIIRS sensors detected 2 thermal hotspots in 1 separate cluster within 80 km of Nossa Senhora de Fátima, Guangdong, China in the last 48 h. The closest is 55 km ENE of the city centre (at Tin Shui Wai), with 2 detections and a peak fire radiative power of 15 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.
Across China there are 850 fire clusters in the same window, 24 of them in Guangdong.
| Fire cluster | From city | Detections | Peak FRP | First seen | Last seen |

Smoke and wind
Wind at Nossa Senhora de Fátima is from the NNE at 12 km/h (gusts 23 km/h), so smoke near the city drifts toward the SSW. Relative humidity is 66% and the temperature 25°C.
Nossa Senhora de Fátima 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 Nossa Senhora de Fátima 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.
