Frankly ALL of these fires out here are suspicious to me, with these winds it just apes ONE fricking lunes tune to start a spark!!! With ALL of the utility wires being shut down there should be no reason for these fires!!!
I agree. I also heard on John & Ken yesterday that PG&E shut off the transmission lines, but did NOT shut off the main line.
They also said that 2 100year old blown transformers were the cause of 2 fires last year. Failed CA leadership in requiring maintenance, if you ask me.
The recent Getty Fire was started near a 405 underpass. Well, that would be home to many vagrants who are allowed open flame cooking. Garcetti always tries to blame the deep pocketed utilities. Yes, the utilities have much of the blame, but bums living on the streets & around brush do too.
