Estimated consequences

• Affected area: about 48 km² (accumulated 375 m satellite pixels — order of magnitude; the actually burnt area may differ).
• Intensity: peak of 406.2 MW on a single detection; the fire is currently receding (comparing the last two 6-hour periods).
• Smoke: current PM2.5 fine particles over the area: loading… (CAMS / Copernicus). Above 55 µg/m³, air is considered unhealthy.
• Observed activity: from 01/08 19:32 UTC to 02/08 21:12 UTC (48-hour rolling window).
