Preface

Statistics used in this report were gathered from the interagency Fire and Aviation 

Management Web Applications (FAMWEB) system, which includes the Situation Report 

and Incident Status Summary (ICS-209) programs. Previous National Interagency 

Coordination Center (NICC) annual reports and other sources were also used in this 

document. The statistics presented here are intended to provide a national perspective 

of annual fire activity, but may not reflect official figures for a specific agency. The statistics 

are delineated by agency and Geographic Area. Pie chart figures are rounded to the 

nearest whole percentage point. This document is available electronically at the National 

Interagency Coordination Center Intelligence web page. 

For agency-specific details or official data contact the individual agency.

Resource mobilization statistics used in this report were gathered from the interagency 

Resource Ordering and Status System (ROSS), which tracks tactical, logistical, service 

and support resources mobilized by the national incident dispatch coordination system. 

Statistics presented in this report are the resources requested by one of the ten 

Geographic Area Coordination Centers and processed through NICC. Requests by FEMA 

are placed to NICC through Emergency Support Function (ESF) #4 (Firefighting). The 

resource ordering process and procedures may be found in the National Mobilization 

Guide. The National Mobilization Guide can be found at the NICC Reference Documents 

web page.

2017 Fire Environment Summary

Winter (December 2016 – February 2017)

The winter months were generally warmer-than-normal across the U.S. except for normal 

to slightly below normal conditions in the Pacific Northwest, northern Great Basin, and 

the Northern Rockies where multiple winter weather systems brought cooler conditions in 

addition to substantial precipitation. The southern half of the country experienced 

temperatures that were as much as eight to ten degrees above normal. The northern 

Plains to New England featured temperatures that were near to slightly below normal 

during the early portion of the period followed by a trend toward warmer-than-normal 

temperatures. 

Precipitation was above normal in most areas west of the Rockies. The abundant 

moisture produced high soil moisture levels that would later promote significant growth in 

the fine fuels. Precipitation amounts of 200 percent of normal and higher produced a 

mountain snowpack that was well above average. The precipitation amounts received in

the western mountains produced a near-catastrophic dam failure at the Oroville dam in 

California in early February. Elsewhere, drier-than-normal conditions continued across 

much of the southeast and southern Plains. By early February, running totals were nearly 

50 percent below average. The northeastern states also observed mounting precipitation 

deficits as drought conditions expanded northward along the East Coast. A shift in the 

weather pattern occurred in late February. This allowed several large-scale precipitation 

systems to move across the southern tier of the country and across the eastern states. 

This provided both regions with much needed relief. 

Spring (March – May)

March featured overall weather patterns that promoted above average temperatures 

across the Great Plains and the West and below average temperatures across the MidAtlantic States and New England. A shift in the weather pattern occurred in April and May 

that led to overall normal to below normal temperatures across the Great Plains and most 

of the West and above normal temperatures across the East. An exception to this was 

California where temperatures remained slightly above normal throughout the period. 

Alaska continued a trend of alternating warmer and colder-than-normal temperatures but 

saw a transition to an overall colder-than-normal pattern by late spring. This slowed the 

melting of the snowpack across the state. 

Precipitation trends varied regionally. An increasingly wet pattern developed across 

Northern California, the Great Basin, the Pacific Northwest, and the Northern Rockies. By 

mid-spring, several locations in the Sierras were reporting monthly precipitation totals that 

were greater than 400% of normal. Reservoirs that had been depleted from the recent 

multi-year drought were filled. Mountain snowpack levels finished the season with 

amounts that were greater than 200% of normal in most basins. The spring melt off in 

April and May began at a slow pace. Soil moisture levels were at near-record to record 
4 

levels. Drier-than-normal conditions were observed across the southern half of California 

and the Southwest as a whole. The northern Great Plains, Georgia, and Florida also 

experienced drier-than-normal conditions. Drought monitoring products showed an 

expansion and intensification of drought in these areas throughout the period.

Summer (June – August)

The summer of 2017 was historically unique. In the West an abrupt shift in the weather 

pattern occurred in early July that altered the course of the fire season. Conditions

observed in June generally were not reflective of what was to come except for the 

continued high soil moisture levels that would promote record growth of grasses across 

the fine fuel areas of the West. In the East, overall quiet conditions through early August 

transitioned to a catastrophic scenario by late month as the first of several hurricanes 

made landfall.

Temperatures across the nation were near normal except across the southwestern states 

and the southern half of California where they were approximately four degrees above 

normal in June. Pockets of below normal temperatures were observed across the 

southeastern states. A rapid and repeated intensification of the ridge of high pressure 

over the West in July led to several prolonged heat events that accelerated the drying and 

curing of the fuels at all elevations. Effects of the intense heat episodes were felt in the 

mountains as lingering snowpack was quickly lost by mid-month. For many locations, it 

was the second warmest July on record finishing just behind 2007. Above normal 

temperatures were observed in Alaska as well as the high pressure ridge extended 

northward past the Arctic Circle. However, timely and periodic precipitation events 

minimized the impacts of the heat there. August featured another shift in the weather 

pattern. Cooler-than-normal conditions developed and persisted from the Continental 

Divide east to the coast while the warmer-than-normal conditions persisted west of the 

Divide.

As June progressed, a subtle trend toward less-than-average precipitation received was 

developing across the West and the Great Plains. However, the trend was not yet 

significant enough to lead to drought development or intensification except across the 

northern Great Plains where a transition to Exceptional Drought was underway in 

Montana and North Dakota. Dry conditions across the Southwest and Southern California 

continued until the Southwest Monsoon arrived in early July bringing higher humidities 

and wetting rainfall. July and August featured very dry conditions elsewhere across the 

West. Several locations including Seattle, Washington, and Missoula, Montana, set 

records for the longest periods without measurable precipitation. During this period fuels 

dried rapidly across nearly all vegetation types, contributing to an increase in both fire 

starts and fire growth.
5

In the East, precipitation was generally within 25 percent of normal for the summer 

months. One exception was along the Gulf Coast of Texas and Louisiana in late August 

where Hurricane Harvey, a rapidly intensifying Category 4 hurricane, made landfall near 

Rockport, Texas, on August 25. The storm was among the wettest ever. An area of 3,643 

square miles between the Louisiana state line with Texas and Houston recorded at least 

40 inches of rain between August 23 and August 30. The highest storm total precipitation 

received from the storm totals was 60.58 inches of rainfall.

Autumn (September – December)

A very active western fire season was exacerbated by Hurricane Harvey response. 

Conditions worsened further as Category 5 hurricanes Irma and Maria destroyed the 

infrastructure of the U. S. Virgin Islands and Puerto Rico. Hurricane Irma later made 

landfall in Florida on September 10 as a Category 4 storm and produced significant 

damage to the Florida Keys and the southern portion of the state. The impact to Puerto 

Rico from Irma was significant but paled in comparison to the impacts brought by then 

Category 4 Hurricane Maria on September 20.

The typical seasonal shift of the western fire season began the second week of 

September as several wet systems moved across the northwestern states and northern 

California. The development and continuance of the wet pattern also produced coolerthan-average conditions as far south as the southern Great Basin that persisted through 

October. Early mountain snowpack accrual was observed in the Cascade and Northern 

Rocky Mountain chains. 

However, the cooler temperatures also set the stage for an exceptional fall fire season in 

California that would begin in early November and continue into December. Precipitation 
6 

fell across the western states but did not extend into central and southern portions of 

California. Fuels returned to a critically dry state rapidly and significant North Wind events 

across northern and central California produced several large fires in early November. A 

month later, strong Santa Ana winds led to the development of multiple large fires in 

central and southern California. Beneficial precipitation and higher humidity did not come 

to the region until mid to late December. A multi-day heavy rain event in early January 

2018 would interact with the burn areas to create deadly debris flows.

Elsewhere, very dry conditions continued through the end of the calendar year across the 

Southwest and the Great Plains. The Pacific Northwest also observed a transition toward 

drier-than-average conditions as a strong high pressure ridge developed over the West. 

Only the Northern Rockies in Montana, Wyoming, and northern Idaho continued to accrue 

mountain snowpack at normal rates. In the East, conditions were generally drier-thannormal except for October where generally wetter conditions prevailed. However, a 

substantial shift in temperatures from near normal to well below normal occurred in 

November and persisted through December as several strong Arctic Cold fronts moved 

southeast into the nation from northern Canada. In Alaska, temperatures were 10 to 20 

degrees above normal through December as a strong southerly flow developed and as 

the development of Arctic sea ice was greatly delayed until late December.

National Fire Activity Synopsis

The 2017 fire season was near normal for number of reported wildfires (102 percent of 

the 10-year annual average). There were 71,499 wildfires reported nationally (compared 

to 67,743 wildfires reported in 2016). The number of acres burned was well above normal 

in 2017 (153 percent of the 10-year average). Wildfires consumed 10,026,086 acres 

reported nationally (compared to 5,509,995 acres reported in 2016). The Great Basin 

Area led the nation with over 2.1 million acres burned (207 percent of its 10-year average). 

Based on an annual 10-year average, Northern Rockies (141%), Great Basin (122%) and 

Southern California (121%) reported above average fire occurrences in 2017. Northern 

California (104%), Northwest (103%), Southwest (103%), Rocky Mountain (101%) and 

Southern Area (99%) experienced near average fire occurrence. Eastern Area (87%) and 

Alaska (69%) experienced below average fire occurrences.

Northern Rockies (351%), Rocky Mountain (210%), Great Basin (207%), Northern 

California (197%), Southern California (183%) and Southern Area (144%) all experienced 

above average acres burned within their respective Geographic Areas. The Southwest 

(97%) was the only Geographic Areas that experienced near annual average acres 

burned while Alaska (53%) and Eastern Area (33%) saw below average acres burned. 

Forty-four fires and complexes exceeded 40,000 acres in 2017; twenty-five more than in 

2016 (see Significant Fire Activity below for a list of those fires).

A total of 12,306 structures were destroyed by wildfires in 2017, including 8,065 

residences, 4,002 minor structures, 229 commercial structures and 10 mixed 
7 

commercial/residential structures. This is well above the annual average of 1,545 

residences, 1,236 minor structures, and 55 commercial structures destroyed by wildfire 

with this year ranking 1st in total structures lost (data from 1999 to present). California 

accounted for the highest number of structures lost in one state in 2017: 7,778 residences, 

178 commercial structures and 3,056 minor structures. Florida was second with 44 

residences, 1 mixed commercial and residential and 282 minor structures. 

Requests for firefighting resources placed to the National Interagency Coordination 

Center during the 2017 fire season were higher than the 10-year average in most 

categories. Filled requests for crews, engines, overhead, helicopters and heavy air 

tankers exceeded their respective 10-year averages.

National Type 1 teams were mobilized 55 times (up from 31 in 2016) and spent 829 days 

on assignments (up from 392 days in 2016). All 16 national teams had between one and 

six assignments each. Type 2 Teams were mobilized 137 times (up from 192 in 2016), 

for a total of 1,873 days assigned to incidents (up from 1,046 days in 2016). (Figures 

include both national and state teams.) Area Command teams were mobilized four times 

(up from zero assignments in 2016). National Incident Management Organizations 

(NIMO) mobilized 8 times in 2017 to both wildland fire and non-fire incidents (up from 7 

times in 2016).

Military and International Resource Mobilizations

Military: On July 22nd, one MAFFS unit was activated through a Request for Assistance 

(RFA) to the Department of Defense. This request was filled with one MAFFS from the 

152nd Airlift Wing and was positioned at Fresno, CA in support wildland fire operations. 

On July 30th one MAFFS from the 153rd Airlift Wing and one MAFFS from the 302nd Airlift 

Wing was positioned at Fresno, CA. On September 8th one additional MAFFS from the 

202nd Airlift wing was positioned at Fresno, CA. On September 16th all MAFFS were 

released back to the DOD. 

MAFFS units primarily provided retardant delivery to the Northern and Southern California 

Geographic Areas while employed from July 22 through September 16. These units 

delivered a total of 820,115 gallons of retardant while conducting 293 sorties. This is up 

from 2016 when 165 sorties were flown delivering 395,632 gallons of retardant.

On August 14th one RC-26 aircraft and support personnel from the 141st Aerial Refueling 

Wing (Washington Air National Guard) was deployed to Fairchild AFB (Spokane, WA) in 

support of wildland fire operations. A second RC-26 aircraft and support personnel from 

the 162nd Fighter Wing (Arizona Air National Guard) was deployed to Mahlon Sweet Field 

(Eugene, OR) in support of wildland fire operations. Both aircraft provided incident 

awareness and assessment through infrared sensing capability to wildland fire incident 

management personnel until released on September 15th. 
8 

On September 11th two hundred and forty-five soldiers from the 23rd Brigade Engineer 

Battalion and 1-23 Infantry Battalion out of Fort Lewis, Washington were deployed in 

support of the Umpqua North Complex. They were released back to Fort Lewis on 

September 26th. 

International: On September 7th through the NIFC-CIFFC Agreement Canada provided 

one CL-415 scooper group from Ontario to the U.S. On September 11th Ontario provided 

one additional CL-415 scooper group. Both scooper groups were assigned to the 

Northern Rockies Geographic Area. On September 16th both CL-415 scooper groups 

were released back to Ontario.

Significant Fire Activity

Significant fires are defined in the National Mobilization Guide as fires that are a minimum 

of 100 acres in timber fuel types, 300 acres in grass and brush fuel types, or are managed 

by a Type 1 or 2 Incident Management Team, WFMT or NIMO. 

There were 1,409 large or significant wildfires and complexes reported in 2017 (derived 

from ICS-209 reports submitted through FAMWEB). Significant wildfires represented 

about 2 percent of total wildfires reported nationally in 2017. The maps below depict the
