The Arizona Department of Forestry and Fire Management says wildfire dangers still persist in Arizona. 

“Northern Arizona, temperatures are cooling down. They are still receiving some moisture in that area, but for the most part, as far as central and southern Arizona goes, we are still responding to fires in those areas," said Tiffany Davila is with the Department of Forestry and Fire Management.

She also says fires can start at any time of the year and to be mindful of doing activities that could potentially cause them.
