The Canadian wildfire season has been off to an early start since the beginning of May<\/a>, impacting air quality in parts of the United States since mid-May<\/a>. Now, smoke from Quebec fires<\/a> is back and affecting areas of the U.S. again, transporting as far south as Tennessee and Missouri. Air quality alerts<\/a> have been issued across the Great Lakes area, including most of Wisconsin northern New York, as well as parts of Minnesota and Illinois. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Canadian Wildland Fire Information System provides maps of recent fire data, including active fires and affected area estimates.<\/p>\n\n\n

The CSPP Geosphere site offers quick and accessible true-color images of the wildfire smoke.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Two hours of GOES-16 ABI true color imagery, displayed using CSPP Geosphere<\/a>. The animation shows data on 2023-06-05, from 10:00 to 11:50 CDT, every ten minutes.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

You can also combine fire scenes and true-color imagery using RealEarth, which allows you to display more than one data product simultaneously. RealEarth also archives a few days of data (depending on the product), so users can create animations over more than one day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Two days of GOES-16 ABI true color imagery overlayed with GOES-16 Fire Scene Detection displayed in RealEarth<\/a>. The animation shows data from 2023-06-03 at 1700Z to 2023-06-05 at 1700Z, every two hours. (Note: the missing Fire Scene Detection data on 2023-06-05 from 0700Z to 1500Z is likely due to an error in the data, not the fires disappearing.)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
