"fire storm"
English
Noun
fire storm
An atmospheric wind system caused by a large fire (as after the bombing of a city). The intense burning creates vertical wind currents, which induces a strong wind to bring in more air to feed the fire. Incoming wind speed can exceed 60 knots (69.05 mph/111.12 kph) in extreme cases.
