In certain areas of the U.S., wildfires occur frequently. In states like Wyoming, Idaho, Montana, Texas and California, wildfires start up as a result of high temperatures and drought.
Recently in California, Governor Jerry Brown alluded to the possibility that California wildfires are becoming an annual occurrence resulting from climate change. As a result, this Governor, like others, issued a wildfire state of emergency to protect residents.
Wildfires can occur in any state.
