Firefighters are responding to 37 large fires nationwide across nine geographic areas. Assigned resources include 374 crews, 975 engines, 126 helicopters, and 13 complex incident management teams. In 2025 thus far, 42,962 fires have burned 3,604,307 acres across the country.
Four military C-130 aircraft equipped with Modular Airborne Firefighting Systems (MAFFS) have been deployed to assist with western wildfires, two out of the Colorado Springs Airtanker Base and two out of Mesa Gateway Airport in Mesa, AZ. The MAFFS are provided by Air Force Reserve Command’s 302nd Airlift Wing, Peterson Space Force Base, CO, the Nevada Air National Guard’s 152nd Airlift Wing, Reno, NV, California Air National Guard’s 146th Airlift Wing, Port Hueneme, CA, and the Wyoming Air National Guard’s 153rd Airlift Wing, Cheyenne, WY. These units operate under the coordination of the MAFFS Air Expeditionary Group. Learn more about MAFFS.
When you work and play on public lands, it is critical for you to be fire safe. Have spark arresters on equipment and vehicles like chain saws, motorcycles and all-terrain vehicles. Exhaust systems on any vehicle can easily ignite vegetation, so drive and park in designated areas, keeping away from dry grass and brush. Recreate Responsibly: Wildfire Edition
There are currently three fuels and fire behavior advisories set in place by the National Interagency Coordination Center, that cover areas of Nevada, California, Utah, Arizona, Colorado, and Wyoming. Residents or visitors in these areas, as well as firefighting resources assigned to them, may wish to familiarize themselves with the heightened risk factors.
NIFC's 2025 National Fire Year Themes focus on keeping firefighters, support personnel, and the public safe, working together to fight wildfires, using new technology, understanding how homes and wildfires are connected, reducing smoke impacts, and being responsible when enjoying public lands.
West to northwesterly winds of 10-25 mph with gusts 25-35 mph amid RH of 5-12% will persist across the Greater Four Corners area, creating elevated conditions. Lighter winds, but still dry conditions are expected across the rest of the Great Basin into the central Rockies. Hot, above normal temperatures and low RH will spread across most of California and southern Oregon away from the coast with RH of 5-15% and poor overnight recovery, but winds will be light except in areas favored by terrain. Above normal temperatures build in the Pacific Northwest, with near normal temperatures continuing about the northern Rockies. Across these parts, minimum RH of 12-25% and light winds is expected. A slight increase in monsoon moisture is expected near and south of the Mogollon Rim and into New Mexico, bringing a chance of isolated mixed wet/dry thunderstorms but isolated dry thunderstorms and new ignitions remain possible in northern Arizona and New Mexico. Hot, dry, and breezy conditions will continue for the southern Plains, with moderate conditions persisting across parts of Texas and central/western Oklahoma. Scattered showers and thunderstorms are expected in the Midwest into the Southeast. Warm and dry conditions are expected in the Northeast, with minimum RH of 25- 40%.
