By Jake Kostecki · A WUI Media publication
One read, the whole wildfire world: roughly 80 percent United States, 20 percent global.
Most wildfire news is scattered across agencies, trade press, and local outlets. Wildfire Daily pulls it into one place, every morning, so you never miss what moved.
The full picture
The full NIFC situation report: preparedness level, every large fire, evacuations, structures lost, air quality, and the global theaters, verified against credible sources.
Five beats, one brief
Active incidents, firefighter safety, funding and insurance, new technology and policy, and the moves and hires shaping the industry, all in one issue.
Built to finish
Tight, sourced, and skimmable. Every item has a one-line "why it matters" so you get the significance, not just the news, before your coffee is done.
A sample of the national picture that opens every briefing.
