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.

scoobdog Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 26 minutes ago, smiradenius said: 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.
