Gov. Jay Inslee issued a statewide emergency proclamation Friday due to recent summer wildfires.

"Since June 2024, our state has experienced abnormally dry weather conditions with periods of exceptionally high temperatures, creating high-risk fuel conditions in many areas," Inslee wrote in a statement.

Inslee's statement continued to say the large number of fires has created a "large-scale fuel supply shortage" for firefighting activities in the state, requiring fuel to be resupplied over greater distances.

Local fire officials said they're feeling the effects of the active wildfire season.

I believe someone or more than one is setting these Fires, I do understand wildfires, but I believe last month a person was arrested for setting some fires in California, I say that because it's just not a common occurrence for Soo many States having fires at the same time.😑🤔🤔🤔
