As often happens when the Florida’s short winter turns to spring, wildfire finds fuel first among the woods in the Panhandle. A flicker in March grew to a blaze that scorched more than 30,000 acres in three counties amid the dead trees and dried vegetation left in the wake of Category 5 Hurricane Michael in 2018. In what is today’s Interstate 10’s east-west corridor, millions of pines have been planted during the last century by St. Joe Company, a lumber producer-turned-land developer, and Michael’s top winds of 155 miles per hours felled and splintered an untold number of trees. In the three years since, Florida’s heat turned timber into tinder. And then as in many years past, the threat of wildfire moves to South Florida.
