Temperatures

The visualization below shows a clear relation of temperature and number of wildfires. At lower temperatures, the number of wildfires is quite low which is the result of a cooler atmosphere around that period while on the other hand if we look at the higher temperatures, the number of fires is quite high as compared to the lower temperatures.
So, a general trend of rise in temperature resulting in rise in number of wildfires can be justified to quite some extent as there are some dips in wildfire numbers even at higher temperatures. The main aim was to find a relation between temperature and wildfires but what the visualization shows is that not only when the temperature rises there is a jump in number of wildfires but the intensity of the fire which is recorded as the acres burned fire also goes up significantly. As the temperature rises, the land dries up and allows the fire to spread more rapidly and in process increasing the intensity of it.
