was the same in California 20 years ago. Didn't have fires like this. What's changed?
- nickff 6y ago20 years of accumulating fuel on the ground.
- tylerflick 6y agoMore people, more fire suppression.
- albertop 6y agoIt was 20 years less of neglect. Not sure when we have stop doing controlled burns in the name of keeping air quality good. It was more than 20 years ago.
- hodgesrm 6y agoMore fuel and warmer/drier. Snowpack for example has moved up 1000' or more since the 1990s in the middle Sierra Nevada, which means less moisture in the summer.
