National Fire News: June 12, 2026.

There are 11 uncontained large fires currently burning nationwide. 2,559 personnel are assigned to incidents across the country, including one complex incident management team committed to the South Fork Fire in Nebraska. This fire is threatening numerous residences and evacuations are in place. Active fire behavior is reported on incidents across multiple geographic areas.

So far this year, 32,373 fires have burned more than 2.5 million acres nationwide. While national fire activity has been light over the past several weeks, these year-to-date numbers are well above the 10-year averages of 23,626 fires and 1.43 million acres. Many red flag warnings and heat advisories are in place throughout the country. Both weather and fuels models predict increased fire danger in multiple geographic areas in the coming weeks.

Taking care of your vehicle is an important way to prevent dangerous wildfires. Make sure that your vehicle is in good working condition (sparks should not be flying from a well-maintained vehicle), that any chains used for towing are secured and that nothing can drag, and park on pavement, not vegetation. Once you're at your destination, be vigilant around campfires and barbeques. Watch for sparks, embers, and wind. Before you leave the area or go to sleep, make sure your fire or grill is all the way out and cool to the touch!

We've heard your concerns about the level of training firefighters receive before graduating from the academy. Now, we have an opportunity to help strengthen that training and better prepare the next generation of firefighters.

With New Hampshire experiencing increasingly severe drought conditions and a growing risk of devastating wildland fires, the need for comprehensive wildland fire training has never been greater. Reinstating the NWCG curriculum will ensure new firefighters graduate with the knowledge, skills, and confidence needed to respond safely and effectively to these incidents.

Your voice can make a difference. We encourage you to submit public comments in support of reinserting the NWCG curriculum into firefighter training standards. Together, we can help build a stronger, better-prepared fire service for the challenges ahead.
Submit your public comment today and help shape the future of firefighter training in New Hampshire.
