Alberta is forecasting a return to a normal wildfire season in 2025 , with fewer challenges than previous years due to more snowpack and predicted precipitation.

Alberta Wildfire is currently monitoring north of Fort Chipewyan and along the eastern slopes of the mountains since there is blow-average precipitation in those areas.

Hiring for firefighters has already begun with offer letters being sent out shortly.
