Summary

Description
English: I (Peace01234 (talk)) created this work entirely by myself from publicly available data accessed on October 24, 2020 at https://www.nifc.gov/fireInfo/fireInfo_stats_totalFires.html "Total Wildland Fires and Acres (1926-2019)"

BEWARE: The National Interagency Fire Center (NIFC) cautionS against comparing their pre-1983 data to their post-1983 data (see statement below). Therefore this chart may be misleading even though the NIFC includes all of this yearly data in one table.

"The National Interagency Coordination Center at NIFC compiles annual wildland fire statistics for federal and state agencies.This information is provided through Situation Reports, which have been in use for several decades. Prior to 1983, sources of these figures are not known, or cannot be confirmed, and were not derived from the current situation reporting process. As a result the figures prior to 1983 should not be compared to later data." (statement present on website as of 24 October 2020)
