Charlie Liles Quotations

What we're seeing is a rapid cooling over the Pacific. I don't really see this pattern changing.

We'll have some storms here and there, but we expect above normal temperatures, below normal precipitation right up until we get our summer thunderstorm season.

It really creates a scenario that you could easily have very rapidly moving fires in those fine fuels that carry into the larger fuels (trees).

It's shaping up to be similar to other years in which we've had some severe fires. This is worse than 2000. That's when we had Los Alamos.
