Not every wildfire becomes a headline. In fact, most don’t. Hundreds of wildfires can start across California in a single week, especially during critical fire weather. CAL FIRE and our partner agencies are constantly monitoring fire activity across the state and responding when fires are reported. The fires you don’t hear about are often the ones we worked quickly to keep small. 🔥 #CriticalFireWeather# #CAwx# #Wildfires# #California# #CALFIRE#
