fires near Crikvenice, according to the news. They do not exactly affect the airports of Zagreb, Split, Dubrovnik and Pula

Istria is also away from the fires?

In Spain, Croatia, Montenegro, Greece, etc., summer fires are normal. Burnt areas are always here and there. So don't worry too much.

it’s okay, it’s okay ... but you still don’t want a fire nearby ... but the fact that something has already burned down is no longer scary

Last year, fires raged in the Dubrovnik area. This year, the fire was located 50 km from the city of Opatija, and 15 km from the city of Tsirkvenica. For now, all fires have been extinguished, as announced on international news. Against the general background of the mountain range, the places of the previously burning forest are hardly visible.

And how are things in Zadar, namely in the Zaton area? Is it possible to go there in early August?
аватар m_svetlana
who can tell in advance? today there was a fire near Split airport .... but they were able to put it out already
аватар Tcherepennikova
then it’s probably worth abandoning the idea of ​​u200bu200bgoing specifically to Croatia ... but it’s a pity
аватар m_svetlana
in Montenegro, Spain, France and Greece, if there is forest vegetation at any moment, it can be the same ... it's hot, it's hot everywhere
аватар Tcherepennikova
Well then, on the 10th you can still go, but how will things be with the vegetation there? Didn't everything burn out? ;) I really want to go to Croatia!!!
аватар m_svetlana
not all :)) ... not in vain you want it, it's very good there ... so go :)

Until now, many in Croatia remember the terrible fire in Dalmatia in 2007, called "Kornatska tragedija", which claimed the lives of 12 firefighters.
Of course, the death of any person is a huge loss, but the firefighters from Sibenik were on duty and did their duty. Such is the work and the risk here is inevitable. Characteristically, none of the civilians died in this fire.
For comparison, let's take just one of the numerous reports on fires in the Moscow region in 2010:
The Moscow region is engulfed in forest fires. Nearly 60 houses burned down in the region during the day. In the Lukhovitsky district, 7 people died, including 1 fireman.
It is imperative to pay tribute to the courage and heroism of this man, but the question is: why did ordinary people die in the fire?

August 11, 2012 flew out of Dubrovnik, everything was fine. In the suburbs of Dubrovnik, in a gorge in the mountains, a forest was burning, but the area was not significant. There are no more fires on the coast from Slano to the airport. They have everything under control. In July there was a dry thunderstorm, lightning struck a rock near the house where we lived, a forest caught fire in the Slano region, it flared up quickly due to a strong wind, but it was extinguished just as quickly for 15-20 minutes. Every home and hotel has a fire extinguishing system. Hydrants, fire extinguishers, etc.

We also went, in spite of everything) We visited Istria: Pula, Poreč, Rovinj, Limsky Bay .. arrived on 04.08.12. When walking around the city of Poreč, we climbed the bell tower, excellent horizons, you can see far away .. from there we noticed smoke somewhere far away in the forest, but despite this, there is excellent air all around, you can’t breathe, it’s calm and comfortable. Yes .., this is not Russia or Ukraine. Launch ours there, with Soviet technology, so all Croatian forests would have burned out long ago ... and what tree would have been sold like that)
