Local officials reported a "rather calm" night, with a fire that has not grown beyond the 42,000 hectares already affected. Sophie Brocas, the prefect for the Gironde region, expressed some optimism that lower temperatures could help. Some rain was expected along the coast that "could reach the fire zone", Gironde officials said in a morning note. Blazes in touristic Mugla and Antalya and elsewhere raged overnight as hot weather and strong winds gripped the region. At the peak of the evacuations, a third of a million people were driven from homes and vacation sites in France and Spain.
