Global warming caused mainly by burning of fossil fuels increased the overlap between flammable drought conditions and the strong Santa Ana winds that propelled the flames from vegetated open space into neighborhoods.
Today ’s climate heated 2.3 Fahrenheit ( 1.3 Celsius) above the 1850-1900 pre-industrial average, based on a 10-year running average.
The fires killed at least 28 people and destroyed or damaged more than 16,000 structures.
