We are now in the season of large, catastrophic wildfires west of the Cascade crest. Mid-August to mid-September is ground zero for historic fires over the western slopes of the Cascades and coastal mountains of our region.

But why are major westside wildfires limited to this season?
This podcast will explain why and describe the essential requirements for major fires west of the Cascade crest.
I will also touch on the impacts of global warming....and my conclusions, based on considerable research, may surprise you.
Finally, I start the podcast with the forecast, which promises no major heatwaves, but near-perfect conditions over the weekend.
