🧵Η εικόνα της δασικής πυρκαγιάς που εκδηλώθηκε σήμερα το απόγευμα στην ευρύτερη περιοχή του Πισσώνα στην Εύβοια είναι αποκαρδιωτική.
Η νύχτα αναμένεται να είναι δύσκολη καθώς παρά την μικρή βελτίωση των πυρομετεωρολογικών συνθηκών (πτώση έντασης ανέμων, μικρή ανάκαμψη υγρασίας)

⚠️Potentially dangerous 🔥 fire weather expected in several parts of 🇬🇷 over the coming weekend (Saturday - Sunday, 29 - 30.06.2024), mainly due to near-gale and gale-force northerly 💨.
‼️For this period of the year, such fire weather conditions are considered super extreme.

Extreme #fire behavior seen in one of several 🔥 #wildfires affecting #Cyprus since the start of 2024 fire season.
🤔What do you believe is needed to deal with such extreme wildlife events?

⚠️Severe fire weather warning is in place today for Greece. Conditions are extremely conducive to 🔥 fast-spreading, intense wind-driven wildfires. 🏜️High landscape flammability, 💨near-gale and gale force northerly winds, 🔥 persistent adverse fire weather conditions.

In 2023, 🇬🇷saw its lowest humidity level in the past 5 years.
iMEdD reached out to Dr. @tm_giannaros, a pyrometeorologist/@FLAME_NOA & researcher/@EAA_NOA & to Dr. Eleftherios Stamatopoulos, a Forestry & Environmental Scientist, about the risk of wildfires & the areas in danger.

📢 Αύριο, Παρασκευή 26 Απριλίου 2024, θα μιλήσουμε για τη σχέση του καιρού με τη φωτιά και πώς αυτή έχει αλλάξει και συνεχίζει να αλλάζει εξαιτίας της κλιματικής αλλαγής, στα πλαίσια εκδήλωσης που συνδιοργανώνουν ο Δήμος Καλαμάτας, η Πυροσβεστική Υπηρεσία και το Δασαρχείο.

Currently in Canada some nonsense is circulating that wildfires and climate change are not related. Many research efforts show that we are seeing more fires as we warm due to anthropogenic climate change including one study just published in PNAS.

Back in 2021, I wrote this very short article, wondering whether the 🇨🇦 wildfires 🔥 in BC were the new normal. Today, only 2 years after, I'm wondering whether we are ready for the new normal.
