The 2017 fire season outlook
Submitted by paula on Thu, 05/18/2017 - 8:30am
With one of the biggest winters we have experienced in years and the snowpack level at 200-300 percent of normal, it is expected that the excessive precipitation will likely push the start of the 2017 fire season back a couple months.
“Below normal significant wildland fire potential is expected to develop across northern portions of the Great Basin and far western Nevada in May and June,” reports the National Interagency Fire Center (NIFC).
However, the low risk scenario will not last forever once the moisture is gone.

Submitted by admin on Thu, 05/04/2017 - 7:55pm
The first national call to prayer came in 1775, when the Continental Congress asked the colonies to pray for wisdom in forming a nation. Since then, a call to prayer has continued from President Lincoln’s proclamation of a day of “humiliation, fasting, and prayer” in 1863 to an annual national day of prayer signed by a joint resolution by Congress in 1952 that was signed by President Truman.
Now, the National Day of Prayer is held on the first Thursday in May.
