Washington wildfires ordered by size edit

This list only includes "major fires" that destroyed over 5,000 acres (20 km2), incurred fatalities or damaged a significant amount of property. With a lag of 1 to 2 years, more or less complete data is available from 2002 on via the website with incident status summaries maintained by the National Fire and Aviation Management. Older fires are increasingly underreported. For example, none of the wildfires of 1926-31 and 1943 that together destroyed more than 500,000 acres of the Colville National Forest are included.[1]

Year-by-year statistics edit

Wildfire seasons are defined by Washington state law as lasting from April 15 through October 15 of each year, allowing for burn bans and other restrictions to be imposed on state lands by the Washington State Department of Natural Resources during that time.[86] According to a North American Seasonal Fire Assessment and Outlook report issued in June, 2019, the summer months represent peak fire season.[87]

Notes edit

  1. ^ Included the Lime Belt, Tunk Block, Twisp River and Nine Mile Fires. The Lime Belt Fire originated as three separate fires that burned together. On August 31, the Tunk Block fire was separated from this complex, as it was about to merge with the North Star Fire, leaving the complex with an area of 133,118 acres.
  2. ^ The Carlton Complex fire began as four separate lightning-caused fires (the Cougar Flat, French Creek, Gold Hike, and Stokes fires) which merged and continued as one fire
  3. ^ The Tripod Fire (45,053 acres) and Spur Peak Fire (62,173 acres) burned together on August 19, 2006, and continued to grow as one fire until October 3.
  4. ^ With 3,000,000 acres burned, this was the largest fire in United States history. However, it burned mostly in Idaho and Montana.
  5. ^ The Chelan Complex includes the Reach fire, Black Canyon fire, McFarland Creek fire, Cagle fire and Antoine fire
  6. ^ The Grizzly Bear Complex started with eighteen lightning-caused fires that ignited on August 13. All but the Bear Ridge Fire in the North have burned together. The number of acres burned in Washington or Oregon has not yet been provided separately.
  7. ^ The Tatoosh Complex burned 51,671 acres in total, of which 37,506 acres were within Washington State.[28]
  8. ^ Complex of four fires.
