> the number of fires this year for [Feb 1-Feb 25] already exceeds those recorded in the last seven years [for Feb]
So that would be 2017-2023 ?
So those would be the years since the last El Niño (2014-2016), I wonder how it compares ? (Did we even have the measurement infrastructure during that previous cycle ??)
In general, I wish people would avoid >100% increase type formulations. Like biweekly, it confuses a lot of people, even if they should probably know better (or aren't sure if the person writing it used it correctly).
