Thanks to a particularly hot and dry winter, the American West is primed for its worst fire season in recent history.<\/strong> Utah in particular is feeling the repercussions of a winter that, according to the Utah Division of Water Resource<\/a>s, was by far the warmest on record. In addition to high temperatures, the state saw exceptionally low snowfall, as areas such as Salt Lake City registered just 7% of their yearly average snow.<\/p>\n
