SD's state fire meteorologist on this summer's wildfire prognosis

This interview originally aired on In the Moment on SDPB Radio.

Darren Clabo, Ph.D., is South Dakota's state fire meteorologist. He joins In the Moment for a look at this year's wildfire outlook.

How will the rains of June impact the intensity of July and August in the Black Hills? How does precipitation and drought affect blazes on the prairie?

Clabo brings answers to those questions and more along with his wildfire concerns and predictions.
