Great work by the crews identifying wildfire hotspots and breaking up fuel continuity across our landscapes, a totally washed out feb and March has reduced our planned burning so thankfully we have other options 👍🏻 #wildfiretoolbox
The iCutter is an essential part of our wildfire toolbox at work 🧰
We have recently been cutting firebreaks across South Wales to help manage and reduce the spread of unplanned fire, and protect our communities 🔥
4 years ago we went to London to visit the Queen!
Lots of change in 4 yrs, all still proud of everything @wildfire_craig has achieved & his passion & drive to improve Welsh & uk wildfire prevention & response. Where will we be in 4 years?

Fire breaks are going to become more important in the future, we need to start thinking of wildfire risk in more and more of our activities #wildfiretoolbox
Gave my dad some stick for the 3m skip in the spring barley in April.
Came in handy on the weekend #firebreak
@PauCostaF��� reducing risk in Barcelona.@Hillsides_Wales will reintroduce grazing with cattle to reduce risk at trial sites in South Wales. This is no easy task and takes real hard work to re establish #wildfiretoolbox https://t.co/dS0T5Jagsk
Rocks loosened by fire are a serious risk to responders.Internationally firefighters have been killed and seriously injured by rolling rocks and debris. Another thing to consider when attending these complex incidents and highlights the importance of training #wildfiretoolbox
Road Closure due to ongoing incident Rhigos Mountain Road, fire has melted fencing on roadside allowing boulders to fall onto roadway. Highways are attending. Road Closed until further notice @swpRCT
We have now seen the effects that weather has on wildfires.We have the ignitions, we have the fuel, the weather has previously kept us safe. The window of opportunity is going to slam shut, let’s act now to keep firefighters, communities and the environment safer #wildfiretoolbox
Max. fire weather index for England during the July heatwave was way above anything we have seen in the last two decades. No wonder fire services were so stretched and we had an unprecedented property loss linked to vegetation fires.

@SWFireandRescue used the icut3 on another fire this evening, strong winds and steep slopes giving some impressive flames, by mulching the fuel we can make fires much safer to manage by reducing flame length👍🏻 #wildfiretoolbox
Fantastic work by @SWFireandRescue tactical burn team from Tonypandy Fire station last night,managing the fire safely and effectively using tactical burning.Great to see the tactics being used by crews, stopping the fire from jumping paths and risking communities #wildfiretoolbox
Wildfire awareness sessions @maestegfirestation 2 watches down 3 to go. Great to seek local knowledge of wildfire risks to the community from the crews. #wildfire #managethefuelreducetherisk #icutter #maximiseffsafety #2020preparingfor2050 #climatechange #wildfiretoolbox
#wildfiretoolbox everything working together
Nobody blaming climate change for unstoppable wildfires seems to appreciate this irony: on the one hand they claim that climate change has made fires unstoppable, but on the other hand they assert that if we have enough water bombers the unstoppable fires will be stopped.
@LaurentAlfonso @eu_echo Great but we also need to empower communities to manage the vegetation by cutting grazing and burning 👍🏻👍🏻 aircraft are part of the solution but not the silver bullet #wildfiretoolbox
Day 1 at the #EWWFWildfireConference done and dusted! What a mix of people, disciplines, industries, practitioners and researchers #wildfires #ukwildfires #swanseateamonfire #wildfiretoolbox @swanseageog
Well worth the late night finish, excellent engagement visiting the black mountains graziers for a Wildfire awareness session. @mawwfire @SWFRS_FireCrime @RangersBMLUP #managethefuelreducetherisk #firefamily #wildfiretoolbox
Alex in my opinion it’s vital to analyse the savings that can be made to response costs by managing vegetation. Yes we need well trained ff’s , vehicles and aircraft but also fuel management in its many forms from burning, cutting, grazing etc #wildfiretoolbox
Impressive! That's a total for Spain? Could someone provide operational costs for those 65 aircraft per season? like how many hours at what hourly rate, standby fees, etc.
Presentation today to the Gwent local resilience forum on #dawnsglaw the importance of wildfire on risk registers, the #wildfiretoolbox and partnerships @SWFireandRescue @mawwfire #managethefuelreducetherisk
Getting in front a wildfire and using fire to remove vegetation and stop it in its path is far quicker, safer ,effective and uses far less resources than trying to chase it with a beater or hose #wildfiretoolbox
Uso del fuego técnico #IFTorredelEspanyol
Con estas quemas se pretende crear una franja sin combustible para que el fuego no tenga capacidad de propagarse por la zona.
Recomendamos dejen carreteras y caminos libres.
Tu colaboración es también extinción!
Bit of hose running today😳 16 lengths - 400m of 25mm forest hose with a hundred metres increase in elevation. Testing news ideas for better resilience #wildfiretoolbox
Great morning show casing the #wildfiretoolbox with @mawwfire officers and supervisory managers making wales more resilient 👍🏻🔥🔥
Today I was the Tactical lookout watching out for the crews safety from across the valley, watching fire behaviour and sending photos to the crews so they can maintain their situational awareness #wildfiretoolbox this fire shows on eu satellites
