Historical fires on the map

This is a historical picture, not a forecast. An area that burned recently has less fuel, and climate shifts patterns. In some regions (northwest Spain, northern Portugal) controlled agricultural burning counts in spring. In case of danger, always follow 112 and local authorities.
