The 2024 Washington wildfire season is an ongoing series of wildfires that have been burning throughout the U.S. state of Washington.
Predictions for the 2024 fire season made by the National Interagency Fire Center in June, 2024 included temperatures above normal and precipitation below normal, due to the ENSO transition to a La Niña pattern, resulting in an above normal fire potential for Western Washington in July through September.[1]
