DOVER, Fla. — Florida officials warn residents dry conditions are expected to continue as the state heads into peak wildfire season.
While the Tampa Bay area has seen rain showers the past couple of days, officials said April through June is typically when Florida has the most wildfires.
"Within a day or two what moisture we have here today will be gone and so it is very important to not underestimate Florida wildfire season," Florida Commissioner of Agriculture Wilton Simpson said.
