The new fire hazard severity zone maps issued by Cal Fire this week are part of a two-month statewide rollout.

The next phase of updated California Fire Hazard Severity Zones, which assess the likelihood of wildfire behavior in local responsibility areas, was released Monday morning by the Office of the State Fire Marshal and Cal Fire.

Cal Fire's new hazard zone maps show information on topography, fire weather, flame length, past fire history, vegetation type and the overall likelihood of a wildfire igniting in the area.
