Greetings, from Cork in Ireland.
I too have recently discovered the bush fire layer and now check it daily.
It's fascinating.
Some observations;
1 If you look at Northern Ireland today 13th July, 1330 hrs GMT, you see about 40 fires burning.
These are deliberately lit bonfires to celebrate a local festival 11th & 12 July.
Some are 40 metres high stacks of timber.
By now, I think most should be well consumed or extinguished, yet all are shown still burning ?
Why would this be so ?
-
I note some bushfire markers are actually Solar farms.
We have 3 nearby and I actually drove to one to check it was not actually on fire.
The sun reflection off the solar panels appears to give a false positive for fire.
3 Industrial factories like steelworks, cement, etc, also give a false positive for fire.
All good, thanks
