All fires

The fires tracked over the last 30 days, worldwide: whether seen by NASA satellites, reported by the press or announced by the authorities. Each report gathers what every source brings to it.

Strikes per day

Fires are counted on the archive: the very latest days consolidate over about forty-eight hours and may momentarily under-count ongoing fires. Drops and lightning come from the same sources as the map.

In France

84 fires over the period, including 48 known only through the press. Satellite-measured fires total 8,741 hectares of detected footprint : it overstates the area actually burnt: a pixel counts whole (375 m for VIIRS, 1 km for MODIS) even when only an edge burns.

Major fires of the season

Fires of more than 100 hectares over the last twelve months, beyond the 30-day window: from the largest to the smallest. Each page keeps its measurement, its images and its history.

Elsewhere in Europe

The largest outside France, to set the season in context.

By country

The countries around the world where the fire season is real, with the situation detected over thirty days.

By French department

The most exposed French departments, with the situation detected over thirty days (pages in French).

These figures come from satellite thermal detection and are not an official tally : only the authorities' statements are authoritative. A fire groups neighbouring, time-continuous detections; two successive fires at the same spot more than thirty days apart remain two distinct fires.
