Video - Fire Dragon Causes Fires in France and Spain
The article discusses the phenomenon of "pyrocumulus clouds," which pose a significant threat to wildfires, especially in France and Spain. Pyrocumulus clouds are giant storm clouds that form as a result of intense wildfires, where massive amounts of smoke and heat rise to altitudes between 10 and 15 kilometers and penetrate the stratosphere. This phenomenon is referred to as the "fire jet dragon." These clouds produce strong winds, sometimes accompanied by lightning, making the spread of fires faster and more complicated, and challenging to predict their phases, thereby increasing the danger to firefighters. The emergence of pyrocumulus clouds has been observed since the early 20th century, notably in Australia and in California in 2022. It is likely that such events will become more common as the climate crisis worsens and temperatures rise, particularly in Europe during this summer season, with recurring heatwaves and droughts. A new heatwave is also expected, with temperatures reaching up to 40 degrees Celsius.
