## Resource

Heat and dryness are hitting Oregon and Washington hard this weekend, with extreme heat warnings already in place for Portland and surrounding areas. Fire season officially kicked off early on June 15th due to low snowpack, dry spring conditions, and the looming heatwave — prompting burn bans on campfires, fire pits, and yard debris burning. Officials urge extreme caution with everyday activities like mowing dry grass or using power tools, as sparks can ignite fires quickly under these conditions. While no Red Flag Warnings yet, agencies are ramping up resources and staffing to respond swiftly. Stay alert, stay safe — and let’s keep this fire season from turning chaotic.
