Graph, for posterity.
So we're already close to double the record, and it only just now reaching the time of year where fires normally start.
This ain't good. Lets see how it's going to effect peoples health. Im thinking of making up a air sensor for my balcony with an arduino.
The last 20 years.
Well, we're just reaching the point where fires are most common. The graph also starts in May and the middle is July.
It's definitely worse than it's ever been... but it's not exactly out of season, either.
That graph is bonkers. It's not like we haven't hard barn burners of a fire season before this year, so near doubling the previous high by June is staggering.

The math checks out on the shape of stats
Interesting, will look into it.
