Fires in California chaparral country during Santa Ana conditions are one of the most natural phenomenon in the world. The entire ecology is evolved to burn. One spark in a 50mph wind at 4% humidity, and the whole countryside goes up in a flash. The plants are basically made out of cellulose, oil, and wax.
Only Aussie eucalyptus bushfires are more ferocious.
