I decided to create a topic in regards to Wildfires, I been following wildfires on and off the past few weeks including the Dixie Fire which I believe is the 10th largest in Californian recorded history.

However i have just seen something very worrying coming in from Turkey where a fire has breached a power plant, recently there's been a heatwave around the Balkans/turkey which has caused wildfires.

In the media there was a huge fire near the Greek capital Athens.

Wildfires continue to rage across the Western side of the United States, some areas were in a red flag warning which for some has brought a lot of fire growth,

The Dixie Fire was according to Cal Fire last update a few hours ago about 360,000 acres long, making it one of the biggest wildfires in California history.

Meanwhile in Athens, I have seen a couple of people saying that they are orders to evacuate to costals areas.

I believe now the Dixie Fire is the second largest in California history (besides complexes) 

See 4 hours ago post, it's the largest single fire.
