I live in Edinburgh, 400 miles from London. Large parts of the city look like this. We had a massive Wildfire on Arthur’s Seat, our equivalent of New York’s Central Park. Nearly died walking up a hill in the city center.
God… I didn’t heard about that. What are journalisst doing? Scotland is basically next to France. Why do I hear about tsunami warning in Japan but not that?!
Was this last month? The article is date from 20 July 2026 but other mention I found are from last year. I find article on the same topic from a year ago almost world for world the same for the few recent articles. Is this the second year it happened?
Yes, and it was the biggest wildfire in recent memory. Whole of Salsbury Crags caught fire. Burnt for a couple of days. It was bigger than last year’s fires. We once had a fire in February.
