Meteorologist ClicheVortex2014 Posted September 10, 2022 Meteorologist Share Posted September 10, 2022 (edited) Unreal to see this. Wildfires ongoing in northern California and Oregon while a tropical storm is approaching southern California. The smoke from the Oregon fires is even getting sucked into the tropical storm. I mean, all things considered, there's nowhere else on Earth where this juxtaposition could happen. The Southern Plains is a valid argument but to get wildfires like this, you need strong winds, heat, and a drought. I don't think wildfires are too common for most of the hurricane season there. And since you need strong winds to really help create such wildfires, it's gonna be hard to get a TC to follow a pattern conducive to wildfire spread. It may have happened before, but I have doubts.
