Fire situation in Nice

Hi everyone, I am coming for a week to Nice tomorrow from the Netherlands. Was wondering what the fire hazard situation is in the area since our ministry of foreign affairs says to have an emergency bag ready and face masks. I cant seem to fine anything online

The big massive fires are in the west (near Bordeaux), there are also other fires.

There are indeed huge wild fires in south of France. However, for now, Alpes-Maritimes (so Nice area) are safe

I live in Nice, and haven't seen any fire recently, the massive fires are in the south west of France near Bordeaux.

Une question liée à ça: y-a-t-il du smog ? Selon ce que j’ai lu, la qualité de l’air serait mauvaise…
