Zooming in on Oregon, the enormous scope of ongoing wildfire outbreak is clear. Numerous large smoke plumes from dozens of active fires--which have now burned over 1 million acres in Oregon alone--are casting a broadening pall across the interior Northwest & N. Rockies. #ORwx

Megafires in Spain are easily spreading into areas that burned only 12 years ago (orange areas burned in 2014–2015). This confirms the relatively short period during which previous fires limit subsequent fire spread. In Catalonia, we identified a window of just ~7 years. (provi perim July 18th)

Scores of fires, many that are huge, spanning the state of Victoria. Thank you to all the firefighters, you are heroes! No thanks to politicians that continue to ignore scientists & our evidence-based & urgent warnings about climate change, placing the lives of humans & others species at risk.

The Gifford fire in California has already burned 53,500 hectares and it is only 61% contained. There are 13 active fires burning more than 72,500. And this is not a "bad" year

Secuencia del satelite Meteosat el 13 de agosto de 2025 entre 11:00 de la mañana y 17:00 de la tarde hora local en España. Se aprecia la gran actividad de incendios en Portugal, Ourense, Zamora y en las últimas horas en Valencia.

El incendio de Molezuelas de la Carballeda en Zamora tiene una estimación de entre 30K y 35K hectáreas afectadas y está a punto de ser el incendio más grande conocido en España desde que hay registros. Info vía ‪@eforestal.forestry.es‬
