The speed with which forest fire spread this Two people announced life In the Segarra region, in Llade, he was recorded.
The flame advanced without control in the Segarra region to Almost 30 kilometers per hourFour times faster than usual, with virulence, which even surprised firefighters.
The scale of this fire is proved by the formation of a phenomenon called pirocumulus. This giant 17 -kilometer column with high smoke forms when the air rises through the heat of fire mixed with gases, particles of smoke and ash from vegetation.
In addition, high temperatures, such as in this area, cause air, rise, condensed by humidity and form a large cloud.
This pyroculus caused the absorption of fire that made him run at high speed and move randomlyReaching the flight area of aircraft.
The truth is that fires are no longer like those that before. For example, it was a sixth generation fire, the reproduction of which occurs at high speed. Climate factors make this type of foci Be unpredictable and extremely virulent.
Origin is nothing but Climate changeThe field rains of recent months caused the growth of thickets that are very favorable for the spread of fire.
