Active Wildfires
Fire Event — Northeastern Argentina, Sep 25, 2026Copernicus GWIS | 2026
Copernicus GWIS maps this burned-area event in Argentina. The latest source record reports 191 hectares of mapped burned area (about 472 acres). The latest source date is Sep 25, 2026. NASA FIRMS heat shown nearby is a separate satellite observation and is not automatically attributed to this event. This GWIS record does not provide containment, evacuation or incident-command status.

The fire pin and blue ring mark the center of the Copernicus GWIS fire event for orientation. They are not an evacuation boundary or a live fire front.
What this fire-event record tells us
Copernicus GWIS records this as a satellite-derived burned-area event in Argentina. The source reports 191 hectares (about 472 acres) of burned area. The event appears in the source from Sep 24, 2026 through Sep 25, 2026. Burned area is not the same as the area of active flames, containment, or an evacuation zone.
The mapped event center is approximately 28.34°S, 58.65°W. That point is provided for orientation; it is not a fire edge, safety radius, or statement about fire movement.
NASA FIRMS heat detections on the map are shown as a separate signal. Thermal detections and Copernicus burned-area mapping measure different things and can update on different schedules, so nearby heat is not automatically attributed to this event.

The burned-area figure is a satellite-derived product. It should not be read as the current flame area, a safety radius, or a containment estimate.
Questions about this fire event
Is this a confirmed named wildfire?
Not necessarily. This page represents a Copernicus GWIS burned-area event. It should not be interpreted as a named incident-command record unless the responsible national or local authority separately identifies it that way.
How large is Fire Event — Northeastern Argentina, Sep 25, 2026?
GWIS reports a burned area of 191 hectares (about 472 acres). Burned area is not the same as the area of active flames.
Does this page show whether the fire is still active?
No. The rolling GWIS burned-area layer contains a recent fire event. It does not by itself establish current fire behavior, containment, evacuation status, or whether active flames remain.
Where should I check warnings and evacuations in Argentina?
Use the official national and local emergency, civil-protection, or fire-service links on this page. WildfireSignal does not verify evacuation orders, road closures, or safe travel routes.
Why can the satellite map differ from this fire event?
NASA FIRMS thermal detections and Copernicus GWIS burned-area mapping use different products and update schedules. Nearby satellite heat is not automatically attributed to this event.
