Thursday, July 27, 2017


Over 5,000 firefighters are on the lines of 11 large wildfires burning in California. 


High temperatures have returned to most of the state today.  Many of the valleys and desert regions will experience triple digits today, as well as low humidity.  These conditions are expected to remain through the weekend.


Many people don’t realize that 95% of all wildfires are caused by the activities of humans.  It is imperative that all Californians do their part to prevent the next wildfire!  Learn more at www.ReadyforWildfire.org
