Fire Danger Ratings - As of 5/12/2026 - 

Brought to you by:

 

 

 

Fire season has been declared east of the Cascades on lands protected by ODFCentral Oregon...and in the Ochoco National Forest, and the Crooked River National Grasslands in Central Oregon.

Fire season not yet begun in areas protected by Oregon Department of Forestry west of the Cascades. But, that could be coming soon in Douglas, Jackson, and Josephine Counties.

Due to our very poor winter in terms of rain and snow, expect that fire season will begin sooner.....rather than later. NOW is the time to make sure you have your property prepared to resist fire moving through it

 

When fire season is on.....you can see the current fire danger level in effect in Oregon in every county, by clicking here.

 

Here is what is allowed at the various fire danger levels in Oregon. Check your state regulations if you are not in Oregon.

NATIONAL OUTLOOK FOR FIRE POTENTIAL MAY THROUGH AUGUST
 
Here are the outlooks from the National Interagency Fire Center in Boise. With as dry as we expect the summer to be, potential for significant fires will be very high in all areas of the Northwest in August. When September comes up, expect it will look just like August.
