i htni -caused fo fi
increase
For those who believe that
lightning never strikes in the same
spot, there are a lot of spots now
in Washington that would be
considered safe.
Almost 500 lightning-caused
forest and range fires have been
reported for the period ending
July 15, 1975. This compares
with 315 lightning fires for the
entire 1974 season.
"Since Keep Washington
Green was formed in 1940, the
average number of lightning fires
has been 477 per year," reports
from 1 1
Ed Loners, director. "With 497
lightning fires reported, we have
far exceeded that average already
and we're not even halfway
through the '75 fire season."
More disturbing than the
increase in lightning fires is the
number of man-caused fires.
There have been 407 man-caused
fires this season as compared with
334 during the same period last
year. These fires were
preventable.
"This shows that while we've
I
enjoyed the cooperation of most
of the residents and visitors of
Washington, we still have a way to
go yet," Loners said. He advised
that we must think forest and
range fire prevention. Whether it's
a campfire, debris burning or
smoking; in all uses of fire -
practice safety.
"We can't keep lightning from
starting fires, but we can try to
keep man-caused fires out of our
forests and off our range lands,"
concluded Loners.
