[CECOPAL activates the municipal emergency plan due to the Carrascoy fire and strong gusts of wind (22/01/2021)

This morning a fire broke out in the foothills of the Sierra de Carrascoy.

The Region of Murcia has activated the Infomur Emergency Plan Against Forest Fires because the flames have spread rapidly due to strong gusts of wind.

The situation of this fire worries about the storm that affects the Guadalentín Valley, in an orange warning situation due to strong gusts. The site has been mobilized by Murcia Firefighters, the Regional Fire Extinction and Rescue Consortium, seven forest brigades and a rapid intervention brigade, as well as two helicopters.

In total, more than a hundred people.

The Autonomous Community has asked the State for two seaplanes and Valencia for a helicopter with a helicopter brigade and a coordination aircraft. The Municipal Emergency and Coordination Center (CECOPAL) has met to analyze the situation derived from the fire and the wind and ensure the correct management of the work, activating the Municipal Emergency Plan to guarantee the safety of public roads and avoid any higher risk.

From the first hour, the municipal services of Local Police, Civil Protection and brigades have been working together to deal with incidents caused by the wind.

The human resources of these services have been reinforced throughout the day. In turn, several residents of the municipalities are communicating to the City Council several incidents that are occurring in the urban area as a result of the air.

Therefore, we leave you with some safety recommendations to avoid accidents in the event of strong winds:  Avoid walking through wooded areas. Remove from the balcony what may fall to the street. Collect and secure awnings. Stay away from structures that can blow down the wind. Much caution behind the wheel. function { ;(, , {});}
