One of the issues is that the 'window' for fuel load management/back burning is shrinking because the bush fire season is starting earlier. We had out of control fires from September, which is unheard of, and concerns that they were started by back burning operations.

In contrast, we had snow in our alpine regions into December. The weather is completely nutty recently.
