West Faces Surge in Fire Danger

Fire danger is skyrocketing across the West, especially Friday and Saturday, as dry lightning strikes ignite parched vegetation and spawn new wildfires. The Four Corners region is the epicenter, with red flag warnings stretching from Northern California to Arizona and beyond. The National Weather Service warns lightning is “likely to create new ignitions,” and with wind gusts up to 55 mph, fires could spread rapidly—outpacing first responders.
