Wildfires continue to rage across the west, particularly in California, Oregon, and Washington. To date, the fires have been responsible for the deaths of at least 34 people, destroyed thousands of homes and structures, and covered an area roughly the size of the state of New Jersey.
To help those who are affected, we’ve compiled a number of links below for wildfires resources and information that we hope will be helpful.
According to news reports, over 3.3 million acres have burned in California causing at least 25 deaths, and the destruction of more than 4,200 structures. Over 1 million acres have burned in Oregon, with 8 deaths and 1,145 homes/structures destroyed. In Washington, fires have burned over 800,000 acres, and 418 structures have been destroyed including 195 homes. According to CalFire, more than 17,000 firefighters are fighting 25 wildfires.
The Los Angeles Times recently reported that record-breaking wildfires are occurring with much greater frequency and that fires in the last 10 years have broken all historic wildfire records, with 2020 topping them all. “Eight of the 10 largest fires in California history have burned in the past decade,” the LA Times article stated. “On Sept. 9, the massive August Complex became the largest fire in the state’s history.”
The article added that California’s fire season usually peaks in the Fall, with increased Santa Ana and Diablo winds, so the fires could potentially still get worse.
