New #UCCE research finds one of the strongest predictors of #wildfire fatalities may be the number of roads out of a community. Communities with fewer than 6 exits face significantly greater evacuation risk during fast-moving wildfires. www.ucanr.edu/blog/green-blog/artic…

This map shows wildfire evacuation risk across U.S. communities. Areas are color-coded by risk level: low (light pink), medium (medium blue), and high (dark purple). A key explains the classification. High-risk areas are concentrated in the western U.S., while eastern and central regions generally show lower risk. Major geographical features like the Great Lakes and Gulf of Mexico are visible.
