Santa Rosa’s wildfire season is officially over. On Monday, local fire officials said there is no longer a threat of severe wildfires. They credit recent rainfall, and upcoming rainfall, for making brush and grass less dry and flammable. Following the announcement, Santa Rosa residents no longer need to have their properties in compliance with the weed abatement ordinance. This year’s fire season lasted just a bit more than five months. It started on June 6th.
