PORTUGAL, Porto Moniz : A fireman stands on a fire truck as he works to extinguish a forest fire in Achadas da Cruz, close to Porto Moniz, on Madeira Island on July 20, 2012. Fires raged around the towns of Calheta, Ribeira Brava and in Santa Cruz, where one house was destroyed and a health centre, school and youth centre were evacuated as a precautionary measure. The problems began on the evening of July 18 when high temperatures and strong winds fanned a fire that broke out on the edge of the capital Funchal, gutting two houses and partially burning a third.
