Triple-digit heat fuels wildfire danger | California Heat Wave

As triple-digit heat scorches Northern California, fire officials warn that wildfire season is arriving early and intense. Dry, windy conditions have turned once-green fields into tinderboxes, prompting crews to respond to early grass fires. Capt. Mark Nunez urges homeowners to create defensible space—mow grass before 9 AM and remove debris. In Sacramento County, a renewed goat-grazing program at Illa M. Collin Conservation Preserve is clearing brush faster than crews, tackling fire-prone vegetation. With summer heat approaching, both human and animal efforts are crucial to prevent fast-moving wildfires and keep communities safe.
