2023 Fire Season Outlook
The weather outlook for January through April calls for mixed temperature and precipitation anomalies, with some months being a bit wetter while others on the drier side. Similarly, some months will experience near to above normal temperatures while others are likely to be near to below normal. The driest monthly signature shows up for February as a near West Coast ridge potentially becomes more dominant. Critically dry fuel moisture alignments are not likely to be reached for any great length of time or over a larger area during the four-month outlook.
LeadingAge California members who need additional assistance should contact Melanie Ripley.
