2023 Fire Year Outlook

Weather outlook for March to June calls for mixed temperature & precipitation anomalies with timely moisture intrusions for the rest of this winter and less certainty for the spring. Several northerly wind events are expected during March. Critically dry fuel moisture alignments are not likely to be reached for any great length of time or over a larger area during the four-month outlook.

Pictured: the McKinney Fire which started in the Klamath National Forest in July of 2022 and caused four fatalities.
