Of course, there are no guarantees when it comes to California’s increasingly year-round fire season. Still, these autumn rains are indisputably good news, particularly after predictions of drier-than-usual La Niña conditions over fall and winter. The storms will most likely yield significant benefits for both California’s ongoing water shortage and its fire season, especially in the cooler and wetter northern parts of the state, said Daniel Swain, a climate scientist at the University of California, Los Angeles.
Already, we’ve seen far less fire devastation in 2022 than in recent years. About 362,351 acres of the state had burned through the end of October, compared with nearly 2.5 million by that point last year, according to Cal Fire. The five-year average for acres burned in the first 10 months of the year is 2.1 million.
