This year unfortunately is looking like it could be similar to 2020 when it comes to the wildfire threat in much of Colorado, but officials say the state has improved its readiness to respond, particularly when it comes to the goal of extinguishing fires in their infancy. The Colorado Division of Fire Prevention and Control said in its annual Wildfire Preparedness Plan, released Thursday, that anticipated above-average temperatures and below-average precipitation through July “are expected to result in drought intensification and earlier than average spring snowpack runoff, leading to above normal large fire potential across southern Colorado starting in the second half of May, expanding northward through the month of June, and affecting the majority of the Western Slope by July.”
