Just a reminder that the dry season in California, when wildfires normally happen, is from May to September. Late fall and winter are crucial for filling reservoirs and building snowpack.

We cannot let the news media normalize this as a "natural disaster" and erase the normal seasonality of these events.

I prefer the term ecological disaster. But if you want to be extra spicy, call it an unnatural disaster.
Annual events are hardly anomalies. This is the beginning, when climate events are relatively manageable. We gotta chill, not drill.
From Dept of Water Resources Jan 2, 2025:

“Jan 2, 2025The manual survey recorded 24 inches of snow depth and a snow water equivalent of 9 inches, which is 91 percent of average for this location. The snow water equivalent measures the amount of water contained in the snowpack and is a key component of DWR's water supply forecast.”

Keeping my fingers crossed 🤞🏻
