Flying brands. - These may initiate secondary fire at substantial distances from the primary fire, e.g., 0.5 km. It is unlikely, however, that exterior claddings (other than cedar shingles and shakes) or roofing materials will be directly ignited even by large brands. So far as the exposed building is concerned, the hazard is associated more with extraneous kindling materials, such as birds' nests, and with half-enclosed regions likely to favour ignition, e.g., wood siding behind a wooden shutter.  2, fiche 1, Anglais, - jump%20fire
