It's the dry, hot Santa Ana winds. When it comes from the east and blows out to sea, it's hot. Add to that, dry grassy material, it doesn't take much to spark a blaze. All it takes it a lit cigarette thrown out of a car, or a "controlled burn" gone awry to set it off.

Sorry to hear that news. I hope all here and everyone is safe!

Exactly.

And people in those areas typically never clear the brush around their homes. Until it's too late. :sweat:

I guess maybe that's the reason we stay sober longer than our peers.

Only 20% of the alcohol consumed is absorbed by the stomach.
