Le pyrocumulonimbus est un nuage formé par un incendie de forêt de grande ampleur. Sous l'effet de la chaleur intense dégagée par le feu et de l'évaporation issue des plantes brûlées, la condensation donne naissance à un nuage chargé avec des particules de fumée et de suie issues de la combustion. En raison de leur température élevée et de la surabondance de particules fines, le pyrocumulonimbus possède une faible capacité à générer des précipitations. Au contraire, il peut provoquer des orages secs et ainsi déclencher d’autres incendies. 3, record 1, French, - cumulonimbus%20flammagenitus
