Read this before you go

• This tool gives a decision-support snapshot from public data, not a guarantee. Fire behaviour and smoke can change within hours.
• Reliable smoke/AQ forecasts only extend ~1-2 days out. For the rest of a week-long stay, this shows current conditions and active fire proximity as the best available proxy — recheck closer to your trip.
• For live highway closures and DriveBC alerts, check DriveBC.
• For official incident details and evacuation orders, check the BC Wildfire Dashboard and your regional district's emergency alerts.
