Moorland setting on fire in mild temperatures

Post by 16vCento »

If this can stop before it gets to our house, that would be super!

Of all the things I expected living here, wildfire from 'heat' wasn't one of them!

It's only been 24 degrees FFS, I wonder what actually started it, if all the grass is dry up there it wouldn't take much I suppose. :(

You know the ambient air temperature has nothing to do with the fire, right?

Aye, it's getting a bit warm up here by all accounts!, a bit further up the moor, about a 15 minute walk away, I can see the smoke and a bit of an amber glow but no flames yet thankfully.

The fire was probably started by little cunt kids.

Moorland setting on fire in mild temperatures = usually caused by inconsiderate cunts.

See also the shit loads of rubbish lying around the countryside after this weekend's lovely weather.

And this for the parks.

What if the ambient air temperature was 800C?

That's still lower than the melting point of gold.

I don't think there'd be any air as we know it if the ambient temp was 800C.

If a moorland is burning but no one sees it burn, is it really burning?
How about not having a sig at all?
