After a particularly complicated day in several points of the country, the firefighting teams now face hours in which storms, wind, and high temperatures can quickly change the situation again.
Niebla continues to be one of the main hotspots
The fire declared in Niebla, Huelva, has been one of the most serious in recent days.
The fire forced the evacuation of different areas and prompted the deployment of the Military Emergency Unit after the emergency plan was elevated.
The continuous changes in wind complicated the work and forced the mobilization of dozens of ground and air resources.
The evolution during this Sunday will determine when the roads and evacuated areas can be fully normalized.
Castellón continues monitoring Tírig and other hotspots
The province of Castellón has suffered several simultaneous fires.
Tírig reached emergency level 2 and the evolution of the fire led to sending ES-Alert messages to protect nearby municipalities.
Other hotspots also affected areas such as Sierra Engarcerán and Culla during the episode.
Thunderstorm activity is particularly relevant in Castellón because AEMET maintains the possibility of locally strong showers and storms in the northern interior of the province for this Sunday.
Navas de San Antonio opened another front in Segovia
Castilla y León activated the potential severity index 1 for the fire in Navas de San Antonio.
The declaration involved the deployment of air resources, ground crews, fire trucks, and heavy machinery due to the potential risk to the population or infrastructure.
The cause of the fire was still under investigation in the first official reports.
The risk does not end when the flames disappear
A stabilized fire does not equate to an extinguished fire.
The teams must continue securing perimeters, cooling hot spots and monitoring reignitions before declaring a fire controlled or extinguished.
That is why, during a day like this Sunday, the information must be updated several times.
The data that is sent throughout the day must always be the status communicated by the emergency service responsible for each autonomous community.
