Fires near San Antonio, Central Luzon right now

NASA's VIIRS sensors detected 1 thermal hotspot in 1 separate cluster within 80 km of San Antonio, Central Luzon, Philippines in the last 48 h. The closest is 51 km SSE of the city centre (at Norzagaray), with 1 detection and a peak fire radiative power of 1 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.

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.

Across Philippines there are 13 fire clusters in the same window, 1 of them in Central Luzon.

Smoke and wind

Wind at San Antonio, Central Luzon is from the NNW at 3 km/h (gusts 5 km/h), so smoke near the city drifts toward the SSE. Relative humidity is 96% and the temperature 25°C.

San Antonio, Central Luzon 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 San Antonio, Central Luzon 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.
