Reading Time: < 1 minute

California’s wet winter created a sizable crop of new growth grass, but don’t let the wet weather fool you as the abundant grass dries into fuel-ripe tinder. Now is the time to act to prevent wildfires. Already this year, CAL FIRE has responded to more than 950 wildfires that have burned over 5,800 acres.

CAL FIRE, along with County Partners are urging residence to take action now to ensure wildfire preparedness and safety.
