Wildfires have become increasingly more common as North Texas has not received measurable rainfall in recent months. With temperatures consistently reaching triple digits and a lack of moisture in the air, wildfires are happening more frequently.
Host Baylee Friday talks to Heather Gonzales, a program specialist with the Texas A&M Forest Service, about how wildfires happen and what you can do to prevent them. She also talks to KRLD chief meteorologist Dan Brounoff on how drought conditions affect the likelihood of wildfires and gets insight from master landscaper Ian MacLean on how lawn maintenance can be beneficial under hot and dry conditions.
