Geographic Context

This fire event occurred near Phibun Mangsahan (approximately 80 km away) in Thailand, an area that experiences a range of natural hazards.

Event Assessment

This event is a significant wildfire detected by satellite with a fire radiative power of 312 MW, suggesting active, intense burning across multiple detection pixels. Calamity.live has classified it as "critical" severity with a severity value of 84.163. The computed Calamity Score is 41 out of 100, reflecting a moderate-impact event. The primary scoring components are: cascading (70), intensity (60), historical (30). Data for this event was sourced from firms, one of the 250 scientific monitoring sources aggregated by Calamity.live.

Regional Monitoring Context

Thailand has a documented history of fire events. Wildfire activity in the region is monitored through NASA FIRMS (Fire Information for Resource Management System), which provides near-real-time active fire data from MODIS and VIIRS satellites. Fire behavior is influenced by vegetation type, moisture content, wind patterns, and terrain — all factors that determine whether an initial ignition becomes a major event.

Safety Information

If a wildfire is approaching: follow evacuation orders immediately. Do not wait to see the fire. Close all windows and doors, remove combustible materials from around your home, and have an emergency go-bag ready. Air quality can deteriorate rapidly even at distance from the fire front — monitor local air quality advisories.
