The same heat dome baking the Pacific Northwest with near-record temperatures is simultaneously creating critical wildfire conditions across eight western states. The National Interagency Fire Center has elevated fire danger ratings as temperatures push toward 110°F in Phoenix, 100°F in Fresno, and record territory in Seattle and Portland. Climate forecasters at the Climate Impact Company warned in their 2026 summer outlook that the Northwest faces dangerous heat and drought expansion throughout the summer. The combination of record warmth, extreme dryness, and low humidity is creating conditions similar to those that preceded the catastrophic 2021 Pacific Northwest heat dome. WooGlobe Ref : WGA951855
