The largest fire in Washington State history is now the 2014 Carlton Complex. Central Washington was in drought status. The fire was started by lightning on July 14. The complex started as four fires; the Stokes Fire, The Gold Hikes Fire, the French Creek Fire, and the Cougar Flat Fire. Explosive fire activity occurred on July 16th with very hot, dry, and unstable conditions in place. Each fire then made runs over the ridgetops and grew into one fire between July 17th and July 18th as hot and windy conditions developed. The fire rapidly spread through the communities of Methow, Pateros, Carlton, and Olema, and portions of Brewster consuming approximately 325 homes, barns, outbuildings and fences, utilities, cattle and livestock, and orchards, crops, forest, and range land in its path. The fire burned 269,186 acres consisting of a combination of brush, timber and heavy fuels.

Convection fired ahead of a weak early season cold front as it pushed slowly across central Texas.  As this convection entered into the brush country and ranchlands during the evening hours of August 1, it encountered an environment rich in moisture and CAPE.  Some of the storms became strong and produced frequent cloud to ground lightning, wind gusts of 30 to 40 mph and heavy rainfall. The slow moving to nearly stationary thunderstorms produced estimated rainfall rates of 2 to 3 inches per hour. The runoff from this excessive rainfall led to 3 to 4 inches of water moving over some of the low-lying areas on roadways.
