      Hi all, I'm new to Windy and wanted to see fire data. Turn it on and every place I zoom into in the UK that shows as a active fire is a Solar Farm? Is this bad data?

      Thanks

        Active Fires layer is based on radiative power of fires en MW. I don't know if this solar farm reflects enough light to be a radiant source.
        See the link

          @idefix37 That makes sense. Seems a lot of solar panel farms show up in the results. Is there any way to filter out certain spots?

          Thanks

            There is no way to filter some spots.
