Smoke (est.)
Large free-running fire near settlements/tourism — expect significant smoke downwind; sensitive groups should limit outdoor exposure.
Not an official AQI reading — inferred from size, growth, and nearby people.

Likely toward
Risk of cross-border / west–east corridor runs along the Duero fringe depending on daily wind.
Terrain: Dehesa and scrub — moderate slope influence.
Map arrow: estimated downwind run (from W wind). Shown on Overview / Map when this fire is plotted.
How we know
Growth is inferred from operational status and perimeter-control % (not a multi-day satellite growth series). Spread direction / wind is inferred from notes, regional wind regimes, and geography — not a formal fire-behaviour forecast.
Travel caution and smoke risk are derived for briefing only. From reports = explicit authority wording. Estimated = inferred from status, size, and exposure.
Situation notes
Near Portuguese border; smoke and heat affecting rural villages. Cross-border coordination with Portugal.
