A new report says wildfire season in the U.S. could escalate quickly in 2025 as heat, drought, and past storm damage create dangerous conditions. AccuWeather forecasts up to 9 million acres could burn nationwide, with as many as 9,000 fires expected in California alone. Earlier this year, deadly wildfires in Southern California caused up to $275 billion in damage. Experts warn spring brings heightened risk across the southern Plains and Gulf Coast, especially in drought-hit areas and regions impacted by Hurricane Helene. Most fires are human-caused, and the threat to lives and property continues to grow. KFI's Heather Brooker (@theheatherbrooker) spoke with Senior Meteorologist Paul Pastelok wiht AccuWeather to get more details on the report and how it will affect people in California.
