Fires near Panjin right now
NASA's VIIRS sensors detected 39 thermal hotspots in 15 separate clusters within 80 km of Panjin, Liaoning, China in the last 48 h. The closest is 41 km NNE of the city centre (34 km NNE of Panshan), with 1 detection and a peak fire radiative power of 6 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 75 km E (at Anshan) with 8 detections; first seen Sat 12 pm and last seen Sun 1 am local time.
Across China there are 854 fire clusters in the same window, 70 of them in Liaoning.

Smoke and wind
Wind at Panjin is from the N at 8 km/h (gusts 17 km/h), so smoke near the city drifts toward the S. Relative humidity is 45% and the temperature 9°C.
Panjin 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 Panjin 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.
