California Summer Wildfires and Lightning The present Swarm of Fires in mainly in Northern California. The vast majority of Wild-Fires in the Northern part of California are Lightning caused. Significant California Wildfires - 6/25/08 http://www.fire.ca.gov/downloads/inc...Map_062508.pdf However most of the Lightning occurs during the Winter Months along with Rain and Cold Weather; so these Lightning caused Fires do not get very big; and nature takes it course. The Hot Summers are a different matter and when a major T&L Storm comes thru Northern California during the Dry Season Wild-Fires are a Dangerous and Major Problem for the Forests, Grasslands and People too. Presently there are Hundreds of Wild-Fires burning in Northern California. It has been determined that Lightning started more than 500 Fires now burning Northern California Wilderness Areas. Note - Just in the Shasta-Trinity National Forest there were about separate 75 Fires.
