These wildfire smoke plumes driven by 70 mph winds are full of vortices and fire whirls as well as highly tilted firenadoes that are able to couple with pyrocumulonimbus updrafts. When you chase them from the downwind side, which is not advisable, they even appear like a wedge #tornado approaching you - then the orange flow and fire wall appear from the smoke and you can see the fast speed of the fire whirls as the wildfire propagates at 5-10 mph. Keep an eye out for smoke plumes today as winds

A dramatic pyrocumulus cloud, or fire cloud, formed as the large Dragon Bravo Fire burned along the Grand Canyon's North Rim in Arizona this week.⁣ A pyrocumulus cloud is similar to a normal cumulus cloud, but it is formed through large amounts of smoke from nearby wildfires. As a wildfire quickly heats the air near the ground, the thick, smoky air rapidly surges into the sky. | AccuWeather
