Scientists are in disarray after an unexpected “mega fire” hit an unlikely location.
In the United Kingdom, the region experienced their first ever “mega fire,” according to the Daily Mail. This event, which occurred back in June, took place in the Scottish Highlands burning 42.5 square miles. The areas affected were Carrbridge and Dava Moor, and the fire was the first of this size to historically hit Dava Moor.

Earlier this year we saw fires make their way through Los Angeles and the Grand Canyon, but striking in the U.K. is quite unusual given the climate and building differences among those geographical regions. As earthquakes, wildfires and other natural disasters continue to increase, we could wonder if these are more than anomalies, but rather prophetic warnings.
