>>How and why did so many fires suddenly start at the same time?

Freak winds in the area blew trees into power lines and power poles. The Santa Rosa fire started the next valley over around 9PM and by midnight was threatening Santa Rosa 10 miles away. Our neighbor lost the top 1/3 of his redwood tree, blown 30’ away from the base.

20 fires started within 2 hours.
Spread across hundreds of miles.
No clouds, no lightening.

Helluva coincidence.
