Moderate danger for tomorrow

Météo des forêts · September 10, 2026

The day after: Moderate danger.

Published by Météo-France, combining temperature, humidity, wind and vegetation dryness. It is not a fire forecast: it is how easily a fire would spread if one started.

Unintentional (works) 430 17 %
Accidental 291 11 %
Natural 225 9 %

BDIFF source. An investigation succeeds more often when a fire is large or suspicious: arson is probably over-represented here.
