Keys and Eddie, I agree the fire danger is high right now, but am looking for evidence to support/show.  In God we trust, all others bring data.  No offense to Eddie, but anecdotal info from a mayoral regime in the last century is not the kind of info I find useful when trying to make an argument to neighbors or policymakers.  Our management of the fire cycle is what it is, but that doesn't mean it is ALWAYS a powder keg.

I dug around.  Here is the link to the seasonal outlook posted by the Interagency Fire Service:

It's a good start.  The "predictive services" page there has a lot of other info for those seeking real info:
