Thousands of people evacuated because of wildfires in the US, the heaviest snowfall in 20 years in Spain

Firefighters said efforts to put out the fire were fraught with challenges due to strong winds of up to 48km/h and humidity of just over 10%. Hot and dry weather conditions make the fire spread at a very fast speed. This force specifically recommends that people quickly leave the affected area in the current unpredictable context.

Like other states in the American Southwest, Arizona is also seeing wildfire season come earlier than usual. Last week, a wildfire in the state of New Mexico also killed two people, displaced thousands and destroyed hundreds of homes.

Winter weather has not ended in Spain yet, snow is covering many areas of the country, cutting off traffic on many roads.

Snowfall was at its heaviest in April in 20 years. The Spanish meteorological agency warned that snow covered the peaks at an altitude of 1,000 to 1,200 meters in the north and east.

Residents in the Madrid and Teruel capital areas in the east were both surprised and delighted with the snow still falling at this time.

The Spanish meteorological agency predicts that the snow will stop falling today, but a storm is likely to affect the west coast of Spain.
