Fires near Warren, OH right now

NASA's VIIRS sensors detected 40 thermal hotspots in 5 separate clusters within 80 km of Warren, Ohio, United States in the last 48 h. The closest is 3 km S of the city centre (3 km S of Warren), with 2 detections and a peak fire radiative power of 1 MW, which is low-intensity for a single 375 m pixel.

2 clusters are 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.

The largest nearby cluster by detections is 75 km WNW (5 km SSE of Cleveland) with 25 detections; first seen Sat 2 am and last seen Sun 1 pm local time.

Across United States there are 573 fire clusters in the same window, 16 of them in Ohio.

Smoke and wind

Wind at Warren, OH is from the SW at 5 km/h (gusts 7 km/h), so smoke near the city drifts toward the NE. Relative humidity is 35% and the temperature 18°C.

Warren, OH 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 Warren, OH 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.
