This is fine, just the small issue of the ground setting itself on fire and burning down an entire street :)

It’s weird, do things usually combust when it’s 30+ degrees? It’s not like it’s suddenly 50
 
It looks like that fire has destroyed several homes

That's awful.

39 here too I got to head back out for Dannii's swimming lesson now.
 
Sky News have a live feed again. There are more houses on fire in a separate location down the road.
 
@Moderator maybe split the topics about the fires into a new topic in the news forum. There looks like many major fires now.
 
Obviously already mentioned in the daily topic, but multiple wildfires have now destroyed several buildings including homes in the Dartford area.

For international Moopers this is VERY RARE in the UK

Are they wildfires if they happen in a city?

They all appear to have started in grasslands or woodlands. They are in Greater London, which may surprise you to learn borders countryside and contains several areas of open land.
 
I did wonder about the term, but I think if you consider a definition of wild as meaning 'uncontrolled' it seems fair enough to stretch the meaning, regardless of where it started.
 
It’s not just London on fire :kim:
 
MAJOR INCIDENT now declared in SOUTH YORKSHIRE
 
So many destroyed homes! It's quite alarming for us normally wet Brits.

The images from above around the Thames Estuary show smoke rising for miles. It's really quite shocking.
 
The Daily M@il comment section take is “FFFS FIRES HAPPEN EVERY DAT THIS IS NOT NEWS”

Is this the new front line of our culture wars, the extent to which we are (or are not) on fire?
