Per the WEATHER CHANNEL. "California has had 4,599 wildfires so far this year outpacing 2020". WHAT?

How many Californians out there have had/seen/experienced fires wild or otherwise this season? 4,599 and it is OUTPACING 2020?

    There've been quite a few around here (especially to the west).   All were caused by stupid people doing stupid things.  So far they've paled in comparison to the ones up north of here.  Our air attack has been awesome at getting to them quickly.  Right now our fire tankers and helicopters are up north working on those fires (although I believe one tanker is still at the airport on standby).  

    This place is thoroughly kiln dried that's to the heat.  Even green plants crackle into dust when walked on.  Everyone's on pins and needles. Any wisp of smoke sends them into a panic.

    Do you have any HOPE at all of things getting better before they get way worse Shuhak? It seems we walk on eggshells 24/7. How do we survive worse than this? Inquiring minds wanna know. Thank you for your reply m'dear! :)
