PHOENIX â Warm temperatures. High winds. Low humidity. Abundance dry fuels. These ingredients make up the perfect recipe for one of Arizona s most dangerous disasters wildfires.
âWhen we say one spark is all it takes to start a fast-moving wildfire, itâs true,â said Tiffany Davila, a public affairs officer with the Arizona State Forestry division.
One spark was all it took to start the 400-plus-acre Little Fire near Winslow last week.
With last winter being mostly dry, conditions are unfortunately ripe for wildfires across the state once again.
âWe still have fine fuels accumulated across the Sonoran Desert, so we can have a very active fire season, but not just in this region, but throughout the state,â said Davila.
