Rain finally helped cool the wildfires that burned in Colorado for nearly two weeks, but the threat of more fires throughout the United States persists as dry conditions have created plenty of fuel for wildfires, according to Lamont Norman, global product manager, Pitney Bowes Software.
Norman saw first hand the damage caused by the Colorado wildfires from his home in Boulder.
"The thing that drove these fires and made things more dramatic is the fact that the weather was so dry and so hot," he says. "The humidity was in the single digits and then you had lightning strikes in the area."
