Wildfires in Montenegro

Situation over the last 30 days

23 fires detected in Montenegro over the last 30 days, totalling 9,894 hectares of cumulative footprint. The latest satellite detection (NASA FIRMS) dates from October 8 at 01:29 AM.

The fire season in Montenegro runs from June to September, when Mediterranean vegetation is dry and strong winds drive the fronts. Most ignitions are human in origin, and the largest footprints form within hours under a steady wind.

Other countries

These figures come from satellite thermal detection and are not an official tally: only the emergency services of the country concerned are authoritative. The detected footprint overstates the area actually burnt, a pixel counting whole (375 m for VIIRS, 1 km for MODIS) when only an edge burns. A freshly detected fire may not yet carry a place name and will then not appear in this list, though it is already on the map.
