      In Washington state there is a fire call the Toonerville fire. Tahuya, WA 98588. There are communities down there that have been under mandatory evacuation and somehow it’s not showing up on your maps at all.

        This is from the "info" about the Active Fires layer

        Active fires
        The data on active fires is provided by NASA FIRMS (Fire Information for Resource Management System). The presented value is called Fire Radiative Power (FRP) and depicts the pixel-integrated fire radiative power in MW (megawatts) over a square kilometer. To offer a comprehensive view of fires that is larger than one pixel, we present total area of a fire cluster. A single pixel corresponds to approximately 300 meters. On the minimap, a circle indicates the approximate location of a single fire pixel. For more information about how the data is collected, refer to FAQ page at NASA.

        If it's not on Windy, and not on FIRMS...then it's not hot enough to get picked up by the satellites.
