| There was a prescribed burn in the Sierras a number of years ago where officials believed the same thing. It burned up under the snow and was a struggle to suppress.
There was a fire in Northern Alberta a few years ago, I think 2018, that burned for 17 months. That means it burned through cold and snow.
People don’t realize the low humidity associated with cold, especially extremely cold air.
Yes, generally speaking, burning in the winter is okay, but if fuel moistures are low and you get a little wind, you can be off to the races. | |
