Météo des forêts
The risk that a fire starts and spreads tomorrow, department by department. Météo-France publishes it every day during the fire season, and it is the only data on this site that speaks about the future.
Bulletin for September 10, 2026.

The four levels
| Level | What it means | Departments tomorrow |
|---|---|---|
| Very high danger | The weather conditions make the risk of forest and vegetation fires starting and spreading very high. | 0 |
| High danger | The weather conditions significantly worsen the risk of fires starting and spreading. | 5 |
| Moderate danger | The weather conditions do not significantly worsen the risk of fires starting and spreading. | 8 |
| Low danger | The expected weather conditions and recent rainfall reduce the risk of fires starting and spreading. | 83 |
Published by Météo-France for the department as a whole. It is not a fire forecast: it is how easily a fire would spread if one started.

Frequently asked questions
- Does the Météo des forêts forecast wildfires?
- No. It says how far weather conditions would help a fire spread if one started: temperature, humidity, wind and vegetation dryness. Very high danger does not mean a fire will break out, and low danger guarantees nothing.
- When is the bulletin published?
- Météo-France publishes it every day around 5 pm, for the next day and the day after. This site picks it up the same evening. Out of season, from late September to early June, there is no bulletin.
- Is the danger given per municipality?
- No, it is published for the whole department. A mountain village and a garrigue village in the same department get the same level, although their vegetation has nothing in common. That is a limit of the bulletin, not of how it is shown here.
- What should I do when the danger is very high?
- The Météo des forêts is not an instruction. Access bans to forest areas, restrictions on works and evacuations are decided by the prefecture. The reference remains your prefecture, the fire service and FR-Alert.
The bulletin comes from Météo-France, reproduced without rewording. The fires actually detected are on the active fires page, and the methodology explains what each source measures.
