In national news: Michael Jenkins, professor of wildland fire science at Utah State University, said if a warming trend in the U.S. West holds, it would mean more of the same for future fire seasons. "Drought is one of the biggest predictors of the severity of a fire season," he said. "When you get successive years of drought, trees and shrubs become drier and cause a fire to burn more intensely." uk.reuters/article/2013/08/15/us-usa-wildfire-idaho-idUKBRE97E18T20130815
