Either that site is wrong / out of date, or the news around failed to mention two fires relatively close to me.
It’s a bit finicky, the satellite might fly by any time, and don’t forget to use “24h” and not “today” because it won’t show yesterday flybys (every 6h or something where I live) so “today” is like empty in the morning.
But have they considered sweeping the forest floor? /s
