Before a coldwave, situation with wildfires and drought significantly worsened in California and Arizona – in Arizona, 2 major wildfires caused lot of damages and smoke across several states.
Wildfire season 2021 in the USA has started with even drier conditions such as extreme season 2020, what should lead to widespread drought and wildfires across western USA, in next months.
Meanwhile, in Texas, Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi and neighboring states, severe storms with floods have appeared.
