It's a term the US hasn't had to use in more than a decade.

I'm referring to the August complex fire in northern California.

我指的是8月加州北部的複雜火災。

It's taken the top spot for the largest fire in California history and has now burned more than one million acres.

它奪得了加州歷史上最大火災的頭銜，目前已經燒燬了超過一百萬英畝的土地。

Once a wildfire burns one million acres or more, it gets coined as a giga fire.

一旦野火燒了100萬畝以上，就會被髮明為giga火。

This is one notch above a mega fire, which experts used when, as you may have guessed, Ah, fire has scorched 100,000 acres or more.

這比特大火災還要高一個等級，專家用的時候，你可能已經猜到了，啊，火勢已經燒燬了10萬畝以上。

The country's most recent Giga fire was the 2004 Taylor Complex Fire in Alaska.

國內最近的一次吉加火災是2004年阿拉斯加泰勒綜合體火災。

Before that, it was the Yellowstone fires in 1988.

在此之前，是1988年的黃石大火。

So this is yet another unfortunate superlative foran.

Already record breaking fire season, the US has had tens of thousands of fires this year.

已經打破記錄的火災季節，美國今年發生了數萬起火災。

Many of these have been large wildfires, leading to more than 8.3 million acres burned way more than we would see in a normal year.

其中許多都是大型野火，導致830多萬英畝的土地被燒燬，比我們在正常年份看到的還要多。

Half of that 8.3 million has occurred in California alone, making this year the states worst year on record, according to Cal Fire And speaking of the history books, this fire season has not only given way to the largest fire ever in California.

根據加州消防局的數據，830萬中有一半發生在加州，使今年成為該州有記錄以來最糟糕的一年。 說到歷史記錄，這個火季不僅讓加州發生了有史以來最大的火災。

It's also produced five of the six largest fires on record for the state.

在該州有記錄的六次最大的火災中，也產生了五次。

Experts say a warming climate is the culprit evident by the exceptional drought in heat for all the West Coast.

專家說，氣候變暖是罪魁禍首，這一點從西海岸所有地區的高溫異常乾旱就可以看出。

We have a lot of fire season left to go to, and conditions unfortunately aren't set to improve anytime soon.

我們還有很多火季要去，不幸的是，條件不會很快改善。
