As of this morning, 111 large active wildfires are being managed and have burned 1,820,955 acres. Fire managers are using full suppression strategies on 104 of these wildfires.
Nearly 24,395 wildland firefighters and support personnel are assigned to wildfires nationwide, including 29 complex and 5 Type 1 incident management teams, 552 crews, 1,428 engines, numerous aviation resources, and four Modular Airborne Fire Fighting Systems, or MAFFS.
Many wildfires in the Northwest area continue to exhibit active to extreme fire behavior, with evacuation orders in effect on 15 wildfires. Several teams are managing multiple fire starts as complexes. Evacuation orders are also in effect for several fires in California and the Great Basin. If you live in an area that has been evacuated, please follow the instructions from local authorities. They will provide the latest recommendations based on the threat to your community and appropriate safety measures.
There are fuels and fire behavior advisories in place for Southwest Oregon, the region east of the Cascades in Oregon and Washington, Nevada, Southern Idaho, Utah, and California. Residents, travelers, or workers on their way to any of these states should be advised and familiarize themselves with the elevated risks.
The national predictive services staff at the National Interagency Coordination Center released the National Significant Wildland Fire Potential Outlook for July through October. For additional information about the current outlook visit the Outlook page on the NICC site.
Looking for information on a specific fire? InciWeb is an official source of public information for federally managed incidents. If you live in California, the incident may be listed by CALFIRE. Many jurisdictions will also use their social media platforms to post updates about their fires. Feeling anxious about how emergencies could affect you and your family? Use ready.gov to find advice and instructions on how to prepare for these events, including wildfires and evacuations. If you are looking for information on smoke impacts, fire.airnow.gov is an excellent resource.
Westerly winds gusting from 25 to 45 mph will redevelop in eastern Idaho, western Wyoming and parts of Montana Friday, with higher gusts possible near thunderstorms. Gusty southwesterly winds will impact Southern California into parts of the southern Great Basin. Minimum relative humidity across much of the Intermountain West, including inland California, is forecast to drop to between 5 and 20%, lowest from northern California into Nevada, southern Oregon and far southwest Idaho. Lighter winds and cooler temperatures are forecast across the Northwest behind the cold front, but this may result in increasing smoke and visibility issues near and downwind of ongoing wildfires during the morning and overnight hours. Isolated to scattered mixed wet and dry thunderstorms are expected across south-central Montana into Wyoming, eastern Utah and Idaho, the West Slope, and northern portions of the Southwest. Scattered mainly wet thunderstorms will develop farther south and east into southeast Arizona, New Mexico, and Colorado. Moderate to high-risk significant fire potential is forecast from northeastern California through portions of the Great Basin and northern Rockies Friday. Rain will become more widespread across Alaska, though the eastern Interior will see one last warm day with isolated afternoon or evening thunderstorms. Another round of flooding rainfall is expected from eastern Texas to the coastal Carolinas. Enhanced trade winds will maintain dry and breezy conditions in the lee of Hawaii’s higher terrain. The Great Lakes and Northeast will see dry and seasonable conditions.
