Description:You and Xu (1) present an analysis of the monthly timing of wildfires in the western United States in 2020 compared to the 2003 to 2021 mean. They find that the timing of wildfires was shifted later in the season in 2020 compared to prior years and that this is the reason for earlier snowmelt timing in 2020. With respect to our manuscript, they state that “the potential impact of changes in wildfire patterns on snowpack melting at high elevations needs to be reconsidered.”
