With the snow cover now gone in Montérégie, spring conditions that favour vegetation fires are now present. SOPFEU has therefore begun publishing the Fire Danger Index in this region. As soon as the warmer weather arrives, we must stay alert. In the spring, dead vegetation (dry brush, fallen leaves, etc.) dries out very quickly with just a little sun and wind. It then becomes highly flammable.

    Le couvert de neige étant disparu en Montérégie, les conditions printanières propices aux feux de végétations sont maintenant en vigueur. La SOPFEU y a donc commencé la diffusion de l’indice du danger d’incendie.

    Depuis le début du printemps, le risque d’incendie demeure bas pour le moment. Cependant, dès que le beau temps arrivera, il faudra être vigilants. Au printemps, les végétaux morts (broussailles, feuilles mortes, etc.) ont tendance à s’assécher très rapidement avec un peu de soleil et de vent. Ils deviennent alors hautement inflammables.
