Fires near Town 'n' Country right now
NASA's VIIRS sensors detected 4 thermal hotspots in 1 separate cluster within 80 km of Town 'n' Country, Florida, United States in the last 48 h. The closest is 17 km S of the city centre (10 km E of Pinellas Park), with 4 detections and a peak fire radiative power of 1 MW, which is low-intensity for a single 375 m pixel.
1 cluster is within 25 km, close enough that smoke, ash or road closures may affect the city. Distances are measured from the city centre to the nearest detection, not to the fire's edge.
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 United States there are 521 fire clusters in the same window, 6 of them in Florida.
| Fire cluster | From city | Detections | Peak FRP | First seen | Last seen |

Smoke and wind
Wind at Town 'n' Country is from the NE at 30 km/h (gusts 49 km/h), so smoke near the city drifts toward the SW. Relative humidity is 59% and the temperature 28°C.
Town 'n' Country 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 Town 'n' Country 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.
InciWeb (inciweb.wildfire.gov) lists federal wildfire incidents. Evacuation orders come from county sheriffs and emergency management, often via Genasys Protect (protect.genasys.com) or local alert apps.
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.
