Other fires nearby

This is an unconfirmed satellite detection, not an official warning. Satellites detect heat, which may be a bushfire, a hazard-reduction burn, or industrial activity. Always check the official source and, in an emergency, call 000.

Frequently asked questions

Is this a real bushfire?

Unless it is marked as matched to an official incident, this is an unconfirmed satellite detection. Satellites detect heat, which can be a bushfire, a hazard-reduction burn or an industrial source. Check the official warnings for confirmation.

What does “peak intensity (FRP)” mean?

FRP (fire radiative power, in megawatts) is how much heat the fire was giving off when a satellite detected it. The peak is the highest reading across all detections — a rough guide to how intense the fire has been.

Why are several nearby detections shown as one fire?

We group satellite detections that are close together in space and time into a single fire event, so a fire front seen across multiple passes appears as one fire rather than scattered dots.

How do I get the official information for this fire?

Follow the official source link on this page (where available) and your state fire agency. In an emergency call 000.
