Summary
A serious gorse fire near Camden Fort in Crosshaven came within feet of 30 homes, a chilling reminder that the climate crisis is already here — not in the future, but now. With hotter, drier weather making fires ignite and spread faster, experts urge caution outdoors, especially around barbecues and glass bottles that can act like magnifying glasses. Fire services are confident in their preparedness, constantly updating training and gear to meet rising risks. Meanwhile, smoke from a wildfire in Slievenamon, Co. Tipperary, even reached Cork city — prompting Coillte to issue a status orange warning. This is a wake-up call: wildfire prevention is no longer optional — it’s urgent.
