Dude, you just proved that you can't read a map when it's posted in full color in front of you.

That's not a map.  It's a cropped photo and it's too blurry and pixelated to show where any trees or brush might be.

No shifting the goal posts Kenny.    Where in that picture is a forest where a fire can start and send embers into the neighborhood?

I'm not shifting anything and your photos aren't showing enough detail.  The wooded areas in question don't have to in the immediate vicinity of the suburb.  The embers and fly ashes could travel as far as eight miles.

It's a Google Earth satellite photo. 

Even my color-blind ass can read it and that's saying a lot. Some b*tch in that pic has a damn home pool. >:(

5 miles. Embers have a rough range of 5 miles and they travel by....wind. Which is a climate thing.

I did screenshot that, too.  Because when I repost the same picture two years from now, you won't be able to identify anything in it.

Tell me more.  As you can see, there's very clearly a ridge running through the center of those barren hills.  Are you saying the wind carried those embers over a ridge to drop them on that neighborhood?

The wind is nothing new.

Expand  

Strength, duration, direction, starting too early or too late for an expected season, dry when it's supposed to be wet and vice versa. It's only 'nothing new' if you listen to people on the radio who turn into screaming puddles of goo if they see a rainbow sticker.

I wouldn't doubt it, given the force of that wind.

Some high winds for you.

Santa Ana winds aren't "high" winds. they're dry off shore winds.  A Santa Ana wind event triggers  a "red flag"  warning, which is distinguishable from a high wind warning.  They are also higher in higher elevation down slope places, typically around mountain passes, not in the basin.

But, I don't want AI to tell me wrong shit, I want you to look up historical records for wind speeds and tell me how often the Los Angeles basin experiences wind gusts as high as 80 MPH.

See, this kind of bullshit is why my children won't let me near AI. It's easy enough to embarrass oneself as one ages; one does not need electronic assistance.

Where are the trees?  Doesn’t it need trees for it to be “wooded”?  Are we considering weeds to be trees now?

Expand  

You never saw a sagebrush fire?

Anyway, there are trees on that foothill.
