More wildfires, droughts and extreme weather in store for Oregon

Climate change is already impacting nearly every aspect of life in Oregon, from respiratory health to the state's agriculture and fisheries, according to a new federal report.
Extreme weather, severe wildfires, winter storms and droughts will all become more common as the effects of climate change in Oregon accelerate, according to a recently released federal climate science report.
Over the next decade, Oregon will see more years like 2015, where a record low snowpack and drought led to a wildfire season that burned more than 685,000 acres across the state, according to federal data.
The changes are affecting many of the industries that play a key role in Oregon's economy, including agriculture, forestry and outdoor recreation and tourism, and increasingly affecting the health of residents.
