A person with the handle of @carlesdumont has been tweeting information today about a fire that we believe is in the Catalonia region of Spain. (I hope the pictures are visible below.) Google translated the person’s Twitter description as, “Prevention and suppression of forest fires; Palamos & Playa Del Carmen”.

A warning was issued for boats to give a wide birth to the water scooping air tankers working the fire.

A video report, in Spanish, of a fire in Spain has some interesting visuals.
