🔥Weekly Wildfire Situation Update🔥

Last week, Montana saw 64 new wildfires, burning approximately 2,405 acres. Thanks to strong coordination and aggressive initial attack by local, state, and federal firefighters, the majority of these fires were kept small.

To date, there have been 1,675 fires burning 113,141 acres statewide.

Scattered thunderstorms are possible across Montana today and Tuesday. Eastern Montana could see a few stronger storms with hail and wind gusts up to 50 mph. The rest of the week looks warm and mostly dry, with breezy west winds Wednesday and Thursday. Thunderstorm chances may return next weekend.

Most wildfires are human-caused and even one small spark can have serious consequences during hot, dry weather. If you see smoke or fire, report it immediately to 9-1-1.

Make fire safety part of your plans. A few extra moments of prevention can help protect Montana’s communities, natural resources, and firefighters. Learn more about active wildfires, current fire restrictions, and wildfire prevention at MTFireInfo.org
