Background
Seasonal background
While most wildfires in the United States occur from May to November, wildfires can occur during any time of the year. Peak fire season is normally in August, when it is the hottest and driest. Wildfire outside of the fire season are becoming more common from climate change and changing weather patterns. Rising temperatures are leading to earlier snowmelt and later fall and winter precipitation. Drought and hot, dry weather events are becoming more common. Forests pests, such as bark beetles, and invasive species, such as cheatgrass, kill trees and make forests more vulnerable. Areas with dense vegetation or tree cover provide ample fire fuel.[6]
Wildfire season is expected to worsen from climate change. Warmer, drier conditions are expected to increase fire severity in California and the Southwest.[6]

- ↑ Or county equivalent.
- ↑ Containment means that fire crews have established and secured control lines around the fire's perimeter. These lines are artificial barriers, like trenches or cleared vegetation, designed to stop the fire's spread, or natural barriers like rivers. Containment reflects progress in managing the fire but does not necessarily mean the fire is starved of fuel, under control, or put out.[7]
