Summer is upon us! School is out. The weather is warm. The mountains and lakes are calling. For most of us here in Idaho, it’s time to live outside for a few months. So as you make your summer plans, you may be wondering what the wildfire potential is. Right now, the National Interagency Coordination Center is predicting wildfire season is looking “normal” with “above normal” potential in the Panhandle late in the summer. “Normal” doesn’t mean “no wildfires” – it means the “normal” amount of fires for this area is expected given the level of drought, amount of precipitation, and the fuel conditions in the region. So, a typical Idaho summer then.
