As we bugged out of Durango last week, monsoon season started a month early, and really heavy. Couple of rivers over ran their banks. Put the fires out if one can believe the news programs from ALBUQUERQUE. Rained all the way back to salt lake.
Did you get any of that, oil pan 4?

France, Spain, Portugal, Greece, and Morocco join the party
Perhaps humiliated, and not to be outdone by New Mexico's impressive showing, Europe has jumped into the sport-wildfire competition.

Scott Adams commented on California not burning, and attributed it to.... loitering drones.
He's really into drones.

So, arsonists, aware of the loitering drones, lost the courage to start new fires?

If you put them out faster than they're setting them, that would happen.
Oregon got better in 2021 because the Forest Service started making arrests.
I'd still like to see drones with sonic blasters that blow out fires. A sonic blaster using a propellor-based subwoofer.

sonic blasters
How about mega-capacitor transducer Slim Whitman drones that blast out Indian Love Call, making arsonist's heads explode, and quenching the flame. Artistic, if nothing else.
Propeller back-up?

This is the last climate-related thread of mine we might consider closing.
