Heat-Driven Wildfires Continue to Consume the West
Dan Frosch, New York Times

"Already choking through one of the worst wildfire seasons in recent memory, Colorado found itself dealing with a new series of blazes this week, driven by a relentless heat wave that has threatened to further fan the flames."

Annie's take:

The state of Colorado has been punished by wildfires for at least a month, and they appear to be increasing now. Experts say they have arrived a month early, which leads one to wonder what the months of July and August will look like.
