Fires near Shahdadpur right now
NASA's VIIRS sensors detected 8 thermal hotspots in 3 separate clusters within 80 km of Shahdadpur, Sindh, Pakistan in the last 48 h. The closest is 31 km NE of the city centre (10 km NE of Sinjhoro), with 3 detections and a peak fire radiative power of 2 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.
The largest nearby cluster by detections is 60 km S (16 km WSW of Tando Allahyar) with 4 detections; first seen Sun 1 am and last seen Sun 3 am local time.
Across Pakistan there are 161 fire clusters in the same window, 15 of them in Sindh.
| Fire cluster | From city | Detections | Peak FRP | First seen | Last seen |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 10 km NE of Sinjhoro | 31 km NE | 3 | 2 MW | Sun 1:27 am | Sun 3:08 am |
| 25 km NNW of Sinjhoro | 38 km NNE | 1 | 2 MW | Sun 2:24 pm | Sun 2:24 pm |
| 16 km WSW of Tando Allahyar | 60 km S | 4 | 2 MW | Sun 1:27 am | Sun 3:08 am |
Smoke and wind
Wind at Shahdadpur is from the N at 7 km/h (gusts 11 km/h), so smoke near the city drifts toward the S. Relative humidity is 28% and the temperature 25°C.
Shahdadpur 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 Shahdadpur 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.
