US Wildland Fire Mobilization at PL5 – Forest Service Chief Issues 'Moses Letter' – PDS Warning Issued

The US Forest Service Chief Tom Schultz has issued a 'Moses Letter' at Preparedness Level 5, mobilizing all red-carded personnel and support staff. The directive emphasizes fatigue management and risk-based decisions. Now a Particularly Dangerous Situation (PDS) warning has been issued for Oregon and Washington, with specific fire behavior forecasts (1-mile spotting, 90% ignition) and operational adjustments (initial attack stance, aviation grounding). This surge comes amid NOAA warnings of a '超级野火季' due to climate factors. The mobilization and PDS warning are critical operational updates for wildland fire professionals, signaling extreme fire conditions and resource strain.
