Every first hand account of a tremendous fire, be it the fire bombing of a town or a massive wildfire, mentions the tremendous winds. I was just reading an account of one of the German firebombings the other day and one if the things it mentioned was that the winds were too strong for children and the elderly to flee. Not a vortex but it's an aspect if fire that we don't think about.
