About Minnesota Wildfire Season

Minnesota's busiest fire stretch falls in April and May, accounting for roughly three quarters of the state's fifteen hundred or so annual wildfires, with a smaller rise again in fall. Cured prairie grass covers the south and west while conifer forest, including balsam fir and spruce, stretches across the boreal adjacent north. Minnesota's forests go through what foresters call a spring dip, a narrow window when trees draw down stored energy right before budding and become measurably more vulnerable to fire as a result. A recent wave of spruce budworm damage has compounded that seasonal weak point, with insect killed trees shedding needles faster than usual and adding fuel on top of an already fire sensitive time of year.

  • Incident details and updates. Tap any fire below to see its size, containment percentage, recent updates, and nearby air quality on its own page.
  • Automatic updates. This page pulls directly from official incident data and refreshes automatically as conditions change. It is not a live, real time map, and fast moving fires can outpace how often this page updates.
