Incident Information Center - InciWeb: 

A national, interagency all-risk incident information management system. The system was developed with two primary missions: 1. Provide the public a single source of incident related information, and 2. Provide a standardized reporting tool for the Public Affairs community.

Click on "Incident Table View." Type "Arizona" in the Search box, and it will provide you with the status of all fires in Arizona.  Alternatively, click on an incident shield on the map and then "Go to Incident". Updates are usually twice a day. Morning status is around 8 or 9. Evening status is 5 or later.  The table will reflect the fire type, numbers of acres consumed, and hours since the information was updated.

This will give you the number of fires in your state, the location, agency in command, acres, and containment percentage. Alternatively, click on a fire icon on the map. Explore the icons on the left of the map for more details.

AirNow is a national tracking application that's focused on air quality near a wildfire. Round, triangular, and square icons will display air quality at those specific locations and fire or satellite detection icons will provide minimal fire information. Key in your zip code and the dial will give you current air condition.  More detailed information can be obtained under the Fire tab during a wildfire.
