Why California's wildfires are so hard to fight
Intense winds, drought, and difficult terrain is making the fire difficult to contain.
 
By Sarah Gibbens

PUBLISHED November 12, 2018

Wildfires can spring up anywhere that dry brush is exposed to a spark, but in California the challenge of fighting them is especially acute.

“What we're seeing now is that the fire season for the last two years has been a year-round fire season,” says Brian Rice, chairman of the California Fire Foundation and president of the California Professional Firefighters.

Hot, dry summer conditions are persisting into the fall, Rice says, leaving the state flammable. According to the U.S. drought monitor, 18 percent of the state is currently experiencing severe drought, which is exacerbating the existing seasonal weather patterns and landscapes that make it difficult to fight fires in California.

I read on Forbes that a big part of the problem is the fact that environmental regulations put Californian loggers out of business. Without the loggers doing what they do the amount of combustible material predictably skyrocketed.

Not just CA. That particular problem effects the entire West.

And the migration of Sasquatches south from Washington state is a big contributor. They are heading for the free health care and tuition.

I really don't think the government is using radiation beams to cause forest fires.

I dunno Frank. That's pretty idiotic... And it made me laugh my ass off - The guy on the moped in the flood might have been the best... But I don't think it stands in the shade of the idiocy that requires space lasers to be a more reasonable answer than poor forest management and Santa Anna winds...

Thanks for playing.  :beer:
But you'll have to try WAY harder.
