So proud of my mate @AlawBeynon for winning Marathon Eryri 2023 in a time of 2:58:07!!! 👏

The course has a total climb of 836 metres - so all the hard work has paid off!!

@stevekeys5 @WelshGovernment @PrifWeinidog Maybe the 20mph is a way to encourage people to walk places because it’ll be quicker 👀

Linked natural hazards are documented across the world.

WILDFIRES ~WATER &AIR QUALITY ~EROSION.etc

This has not been an issue with the UK’s winter and spring fire season.

As the fire season extends into summer we will start to see these links

@swancvs @wildfire_craig @NatResWales @SWFireandRescue @Hillsides_Wales Where we get into these situations the scale needs to be looks at more closely and then it’s a case of managing expectations of local authorities/ public and land managers as to what is actually achievable vs what is wanted

[Darren Edwards @DarrenEdwards10]

@swancvs @wildfire_craig @NatResWales @SWFireandRescue @Hillsides_Wales We no longer put these fires out rather suppress their spread to put in place substantial breaks where necessary and look to prevent them “jumping” roads

[Darren Edwards @DarrenEdwards10]

@swancvs @wildfire_craig @NatResWales @SWFireandRescue @Hillsides_Wales Once established (over 24 hrs) these fires are often only suppressed using previous methods and in majority of cases burn to major roadways and forestry tracks which can be seen from Ariel footage

[Darren Edwards @DarrenEdwards10]

@wildfire_craig @NatResWales @SWFireandRescue @Hillsides_Wales This is where we are seeing such an issue now with reignitions during this time of year and gradually in-line with what is seen in other parts of the world where wildfires are on a much larger scale like on the continent and in the US

[Darren Edwards @DarrenEdwards10]

@wildfire_craig @NatResWales @SWFireandRescue @Hillsides_Wales That coupled with information from ground mapping of key areas in relation to impermeable rock depths, clay/earth levels and depths will be able to better inform key location for fuel breaks to be placed to reduce the risks associated with conducted heat during summer spate cond

[Darren Edwards @DarrenEdwards10]

@wildfire_craig @NatResWales @SWFireandRescue @Hillsides_Wales However majority of rocks making up mountains in south wales are permeable so once water is removed through the heating associated with fire and sun during such conditions they serve to acts as thermal bridges and enormous “radiators” as these get closer to the surface
