^ I believe it, depending on the area.
For some folks wildfire is a very real concern. For us here at home, it really only affects travel. Earlier in the year is what I'm pushing for, if the earlier season keeps going this way, if that means staying at home in Aug so be it.
Speaking of snow melt, on a local hike 1 week ago there was 75cm of snow on the trailbed, at 700m in the trees. Temp at home that day was 7.6C. Today same spot, their were only patches, to a depth of ~10cm. High today at home was 24.7C. That's July weather on the first partial day of Spring. If this keeps up the forest will dry out sooner than ideal.
We'll see what the rain does next few months ...
