Rings at 50 and 150 km — the same two the counts above use. The blue mark is the coastal point every sea reading on this page is taken at. The rose is the 72-hour mean wind, pointing the way the air is going. Each layer above is its own address, so a view can be shared. Coastline from Natural Earth at 110 m — regional context, not a survey.

When this ground actually burns

Across the last 10 years our archive records 22 days within 25 km of Corfu on which fire covered five or more separate square kilometres. By month:

JFMAMJJASOND

The busiest month in the record is October, with 10 of those days. Counting any burning at all gives 208 days and peaks in October: outside summer most Mediterranean detections are agricultural, so that series measures farming rather than fire risk.

375 m heat signatures, about three hours behind the satellite, two passes a day. For evacuation, follow local emergency services.

How this page is put together

Every figure above comes from one of these, and every one of them is redrawn from the live feed each hour.

Sea, sun and the water you swim inFor a destination: the fires near it, sea temperature at the coast rather than the town centre, the UV band, and the EU bathing-water classification.
