July 13, 2022 - Four new large fires were reported yesterday, two in Texas and one in both Alaska and Washington. Currently 74 large fires and complexes have burned 2,841,158 acres in 10 states. Nearly firefighters credit nifc6,000 wildland firefighters and support personnel are assigned to incidents across the country. Two Type 1 incident management teams (IMT) and nine Type 2 IMTs are overseeing incidents in the Alaska, Great Basin, Southern California and Southwest areas.

To date, people have caused more than 33,500 wildfires that have burned 2.2 million acres. The states with the most human-caused wildfires include: Texas, North Carolina, California, Georgia and Florida. Now more than ever, wildland firefighters need your help to prevent wildfires. Before you head out to enjoy our public lands, check for local fire restrictions. If camp fires are allowed, use existing fire rings, keep campfires small, and make sure it is completely out and cold to the touch before leaving. And, know how to safely use outdoor equipment and vehicles. 

As we head into the hottest months of the year, stay up-to-date on weather, fire danger, and outlooks by visiting the Predictive Services website. Check out the National Significant wildland fire potential outlook and Predictive Services monthly deasonal outlook podcast that highlights what we can expect in July, August, September and October. 

Weather

Isolated to scattered thunderstorms are likely in eastern portions of the Interior into southeast Alaska, but showers are likely in portions of the western/central Interior into southern Alaska as a cold front pushes south and surface low moves into the Gulf of Alaska. Cooler temperatures and higher humidity will arrive, but gusty northerly and westerly winds may accompany the frontal passage, with gusty southerly winds ahead of it. Isolated to scattered thunderstorms are possible from south-central Oregon into Idaho and Montana, including nocturnal thunderstorms, with the best chances and coverage in southwest Montana. Monsoon thunderstorms will develop over the greater Four Corners region into the Trans Pecos and Wyoming. Dry and breezy conditions will develop along and east of the Sierra across much of Nevada into western Utah and in portions of inland Pacific Northwest. Hot and dry conditions will continue in Texas, northern Great Basin, and portions of the northern Rockies onto northern and central High Plains. A weak tropical disturbance will bring chances of heavy rain to the central Gulf Coast, with thunderstorms likely across much of the Southeast. Drier post-frontal conditions are likely from the Ohio Valley into the Northeast.
