 That's Scott Horsley reporting. The 2023 wildfire season was one of the lightest in years. This summer could be different. The Mountain West News Bureau's Murphy Woodhouse has details. Bath swaths of the American West, including large portions of Oregon, Idaho, Arizona, and New Mexico, are expected to have above-average wildfire potential through September. In July, much of Mississippi and Alabama, as well as parts of the Carolinas and mid-Atlantic, will see the same.
