Fire whirls are created by two different factors; one is a tornado that spins too close to a forest fire, or a spinning whirlpool of flame occurring in an area due to too much heat in immediacy.

Fire Whirl exist in an environment where there is organized source of angular momentum, either from wind shear or from the fire’s convection column, which in turn creates large swirl velocities as air is entrained into the fire plume (Battaglia et al. 2000).

Fire whirls occur most frequently where heavy concentrations of fuels are burning and a large amount of heat is being generated in a small area; Fire whirls are extremely dangerous, in 1923,during a Great Kanto earthquake in Japan, a fire whirl was created in a massive firestorm, that whirl alone killed 38,000.
