The record going back to 1885 for major land falling hurricanes has been showing a down trend since at least the 1960s and back as far as the 1930s depending on how you like to cut and stack the data.
Wild fires are mostly a man made construct by mismanagement or over management of the forests combined with weather favorable to fires. To blame climate change for forest fires is a huge stretch since it's not the only thing in play.
I do like how climate change is responsible for both droughts, floods and any unusual weather but climate change is defined by a guy on the weather channel who at least holds a PhD in climate studies says "climate change is over the century time scale" and " not to fall into the weather is climate trap" or something to that effect.
