All 2025 Alabama Fires · 6 fires
A fire is listed here when it is located in Alabama. Each complex is counted once, through its parent: the parent carries the complex's acres, and its member fires are listed beneath it without being counted again. A fire that crossed the border is listed with the acres that burned in Alabama, not its whole reported size. A fire located elsewhere that burned into Alabama is listed too, at its Alabama acres, and is not added to the Alabama fire counts.

Land cover · Alabama 2025
Burned acres in Alabama for the 2025 season, split by the kind of land that burned. Each figure counts the LANDFIRE 30 m cells inside a fire's latest mapped perimeter. The Fires tab carries the reported season acreage.
Forest ownership · Alabama 2025

Burn severity · Alabama 2025
Burned acres in Alabama for the 2025 season, split by how severely each cell of ground burned. Each figure counts the 30 m cells inside a fire's latest mapped perimeter, measured from satellite imagery. The Fires tab carries the reported season acreage.
Severity comes from the differenced normalized burn ratio (dNBR), the same index the federal burn severity programs publish, classified with the standard thresholds.
This is an initial assessment. Trees keep dying for months after a burn, so severity in forest reads conservative until the official assessments arrive after the season.
