Wind at this point: from the east at 12 km/h (forecast for 09:00 UTC, MET Norway, CC BY 4.0).
A satellite sees heat, not a wildfire: it cannot tell a fire from a controlled burn or an industrial flame, and sees nothing under thick cloud. A plant that is hot all year is counted here like any other detection: the page of each one says when heat is seen there in every season.
