Four wildfires broke out in southern California’s Riverside County over the weekend amid sweltering temperatures, with much of the state under excessive heat warnings Sunday.

    Yeah, it’s definitely going to be bad this year. The big rainstorms we got this winter caused a lot of growth, and anything east of the Bay Area is already dry up here in the north - had a couple of small local blazes already. The one saving grace is that we lucked out on cooler weather and late rain, but it’s clear that our luck at climate roulette is beginning to turn.

      Not going to lie, I take great guilty pleasure telling friends in other states about how it’s 78 degrees here by the coast. Especially the ones who make fun of California being so hot. But yeah, I’ve got my air filters ready…
