Alberta evacuation FAQ

Where can I see Alberta evacuation orders and alerts?

WildFire-Ready plots wildfire evacuation orders and alerts for Alberta on the live map as the responsible emergency-management agencies issue them. Open the map to see active orders and alerts alongside the fires driving them. Always follow official evacuation orders, and call 911 in an emergency.

What is the difference between an evacuation order and an evacuation alert?

An evacuation alert means be ready to leave on short notice. An evacuation order means leave now by the safest route. Terms vary by agency, so read the wording of the order or alert for your area and follow the responsible agency's instructions exactly.

How do I sign up for Alberta evacuation alerts?

Official evacuation alerts come from your local or regional emergency-management agency, often through reverse-notification sign-ups and wireless emergency alerts on your phone. WildFire-Ready shows orders and alerts on the map as they are issued, but register with your local alerting system as well and follow official orders.

Is WildFire-Ready an official evacuation source for Alberta?

No. WildFire-Ready is a companion to 911, not a replacement, and not an official alerting authority. We surface evacuation orders and alerts from official agencies so you can see them quickly, but the responsible agency, Alberta Wildfire, is always the authority. Confirm critical details with them before acting.
