Clark's research has found that not only does wind affect how the fire develops, but that fires themselves can develop wind patterns. When the fire creates its own weather patterns, they can feed back into how the fire spreads. Large, violent wildfires can generate winds, called fire whirls...
which means that the temperatures are probably very high. The trees, leaves, and sticks are hot from the sun and dehydrated, making them the perfect fuel for any source of ignition. These wildfires tend to begin in the afternoon when temperatures are soaring. The prevalent wind in ...
