I found Dr John Weirs article on burning days interesting. Makes me think about John Stivers, “Every day is a burning day”. When we learn to think in terms of fuel moisture, KBDI, and in stand wind speed rather than month, days since the last rain and 20’ wind speed it opens up a whole lot of opportunities to do very effective burning. With the recent increase in interest in summer (growing season) burning this is particularly productive.
