  1. Wildfire Clouds

    Wildfires can generate their own thunderstorms through pyrocumulonimbus clouds. These clouds can have an outsized impact on the stratosphere, too, injecting smoke and particulates that can linger for years to come. To better understand how these clouds develop, scientists have started chasing wildfire-fueled clouds.

    The photo shown here is a towering pyrocumulous cloud–a precursor to a potential pyrocumulonimbus. Both types of clouds rely on a wildfire’s heat to generate tremendous buoyancy that forces air, smoke, and particulates upward. Those ingredients can overshoot the top of the troposphere and push up into the usually-cloudless stratosphere, as seen here.

    Scientists think about 70 pyrocumulonimbus clouds occur each year, yet wildfires account for up to 25 percent of the black carbon and organic aerosols found in the lower stratosphere. (Image credit: B. Weinzierl; via NASA Earth Observatory)

  5. "The Gulfstream V, which is operated by NCAR, will collect fresh samples of smoke; it has air scrubbers on board to keep things breathable for researchers. Meanwhile, a high-flying jet plane run by NASA will use infrared instruments to scan pyroCbs from above. On the ground, other teams will use technologies such as mobile radars and weather balloons to measure the conditions that fuel the cloud. “It’s effectively fire chasing, the same way you’d go after severe storms,” says Neil Lareau, an atmospheric scientist at the University of Nevada, Reno, who is leading the ground-sensing team."

  9. @Cyrilmouquet Note que des #Pyrocumulus, on en a déjà eu. La nouveauté c’est qu’il se soit transformé en #Pyrocumulonimbus, un nuage de feu et d’orage à la fois. Mais l’un comme l’autre sont des #Flammagenitus d’où l’intérêt de cette désignation officielle qui se combine aussi bien avec #Cumulus qu’avec #Cumulonimbus

    techhub.social/@KeraunosObs/11

  10. @Cyrilmouquet j’ai hésité à ajouter le hashtag tout simple #Flammagenitus à #CumulonimbusFlammagenitus, sachant que le #CumulusFlammagenitus existe aussi, pour désigner le #PyroCumulus.

    J’ai l’impression que le nom qui s’est imposé en 2017, c’est surtout Flammagenitus simplement. Je crois qu’on devrait militer pour l’imposer dans le lexique usuel.

  15. #GrandCanyon, #Utah #wildfires creating "#FireClouds" that can form their own weather systems

    August 1, 2025

    "Two wildfires burning in the western United States — including one that has become a '#megafire' on the North Rim of the Grand Canyon — are so hot that they're spurring the formation of 'fire clouds' that can create their own #ErraticWeather systems.

    "In #Arizona, the wind-whipped #DragonBravoFire that destroyed the #GrandCanyonLodge is 9% contained and has charred more than 164 square miles to become the largest fire now burning in the continental U.S. and one of the top 10 largest in recorded Arizona history. Getting around it would be roughly like driving from New York City to Washington, D.C.

    "Another large fire in #MonroeUT, has burned 75 square miles since July 13 and is 11% contained, officials said Thursday. Evacuation orders were issued Wednesday for several towns in the fire's path, and scorched power poles prompted the shutoff of electricity in other nearby communities in south-central #Utah.

    "Utah Gov. Spencer Cox declared an emergency Thursday as #wildfires grew around the state and planned to visit Monroe on Friday.

    "Towering convection clouds known as #pyrocumulus clouds have been spotted over Arizona's blaze for seven consecutive days, fueling the fire with dry, powerful winds, fire information officer Lisa Jennings said. They form when air over the fire becomes #superheated and rises in a large smoke column. The giant billowing clouds can be seen for hundreds of miles and can resemble an anvil.

    "Their more treacherous big brother, a fire-fueled thunderstorm known as the #pyrocumulonimbus cloud, sent rapid winds shooting in all directions this week as a smoke column formed from the Utah fire then collapsed on itself, fire team information officer Jess Clark said.

    " 'If they get high enough, they can also create #downdrafts, and that's something we really watch out for because that can quickly spread the fire and can be very dangerous for firefighters who are doing their work on the ground,' Jennings said.

    "Multiple fire crews in Utah were forced to retreat Wednesday as the unpredictable climate created by the clouds threatened their safety, officials said. Fire crews in both Utah and Arizona had better control of the blazes, but containment has been slipping as the fires grow rapidly.

    "The same type of cloud, which the National Aeronautics and Space Administration has dubbed the 'fire-breathing dragon of clouds,' recently formed a fire tornado that tore through an eastern Utah neighborhood with wind speeds estimated at 122 miles per hour."

  19. In #Saskatchewan hat die #Waldbrandsaison 2025 früh und heftig begonnen.

    Besonders rund um den Narrow Hills Provincial Park verschärften #Dürre und starke Winde die Lage. Aktuell brennen mehrere Feuer, darunter der Shoe- und der Camp Fire.

    Behörden meldeten bisher 146 Brände, fast doppelt so viele wie im Fünfjahresdurchschnitt. Es kam bereits zur Bildung einer #Pyrocumulus, einer rauchgetriebenen #Gewitterwolke mit weitreichenden atmosphärischen Folgen.

  22. The intense heat from wildfires fuels updrafts, lifting smoke and vapor into the atmosphere. As the plume rises, water vapor cools and condenses around particles (including ash particles) to form cloud droplets. Eventually, that creates the billowing clouds we see atop the smoke. These pyrocumulus clouds, like this one over California’s Line fire in early September 2024, can develop further into full thunderstorms, known in this case as pyrocumulonimbus. The storm from this cloud included rain, strong winds, lightning, and hail. Unfortunately, storms like these can generate thousands of lightning strikes, feeding into the wildfire rather than countering it. (Image credit: L. Dauphin; via NASA Earth Observatory)
