It’s all climate changes fault. Those nasty hurricanes whupped up the atmosphere and then Mother Nature set off a sparkler show like few we have seen before.
Some say you can never be prepared for such a widespread set of weather disturbances to hit.
Some say, the fires were in inaccessible terrain. We have to let them burn themselves out.
Others said why don’t we have roads and fire breaks and such to make access possible and perhaps allow firefighters to slow and reduce the extent of damages?
Why? That would require a regearing, a rethinking of the California dream. A renewal of honest and reasoned approaches to not averting disasters but preparing known trouble areas to allow some level of prevention of fires spreading easily in dense underbrush and fuel.
And look how it moved the jet stream, a few cars on the road sure are powerful.
