DISCUSSION: As a stationary high-pressure system continues to dominate the large-scale weather pattern across much of the Central and Western United States, particular dry conditions have persisted and increased the threat for the development and spreading of wildfires.  As seen in the video below, you note the small plane carrying water over part of the active and/or wildfire-prone areas to mitigate the level of the current wildfire threats!

Firefighters in Woodward County, Oklahoma call in air support to help prevent #fires from spreading. WeatherNationTV.com
