Burning feeling crossword clue

32 Across · WSJ Crossword, August 25, 2026 · 3 letters

Answer
IRE
IRE (3 letters)

Explanation

The answer to “Burning feeling” is IRE. It appears as 32 Across in the Wall Street Journal crossword of August 25, 2026, a Tuesday puzzle titled “Joking Kind” by Daniel Hrynick, and it fills 3 squares running left to right from row 8, column 10 of the 15×15 grid.

The clue is a straightforward definition, so the answer is a direct synonym or a factual match for the words as written. The entry begins with I and ends with E, and contains 2 vowels and 1 consonant. If you are working from the crossings, two or three confirmed letters from the Down entries should be enough to lock it in. Tuesday puzzles stay approachable with light wordplay, so expect the rest of this grid to be pitched at the same level.
