According to the research nonprofit Climate Central, the annual number of "fire weather days" has risen by 10 in the northern segment of New Jersey and by four days in the southern portion of the state.

New Jersey is entering peak wildfire season, and because of a wet and active winter, the state's Forest Fire Service hasn't been able to act as proactively as it'd like in order to reduce the chances of a significant fire event this spring and summer.

Many NJ residents appear not to be in the mood for a pre-holiday light show. Fireworks are keeping them up at night, along with their babies, they've said online.
