🔥 HOT. DRY. BUSY.
Across California, we have been responding to hundreds of wildfires as fire activity continues to increase.
🚁🚒From aircraft to crews on the ground, every response is a coordinated effort to keep fires small and protect lives, property, and natural resources. Hot temperatures, dry vegetation, and low humidity means any new ignition has the potential to spread rapidly.
Help reduce the risk 💡:
🔥 Don't park on dry grass.
🚗 Secure trailer chains so they don't drag.
🌱 Don’t mow during the hottest and/or windiest parts of the day.
🏕 Follow local fire restrictions and fully extinguish campfires.
🏡 Prepare your home for wildfire.

SoCal is really beginning to feel the effects of El Niño.
Coastal water temperatures have reached as high as 76°F near San Diego, with some stations reporting dew points of 70°F or higher, levels considered oppressively humid.
I would not be surprised if ocean temperatures near San Diego hit 80°F by August or September.
Downright tropical.
