- Los Angeles has been devastated by the deadly wildfires in California that started recently in USA.
- The fire has so far killed at least 11 people and burned more than 10,000 homes and other structures.
- The last two winters, in 2022 and 2023, were unusually wet for the Los Angeles region.
- Santa Ana-driven wildfires are a natural part of California’s landscape.
- Santa Ana winds blow when high pressure builds over the Great Basin and the pressure is low over California’s coast.
- The difference in pressure triggers the movement of powerful winds from the Basin’s inland deserts, east and north of Southern California, over the mountains toward the Pacific Ocean.
- The extremely low moisture turns vegetation dry, making it ready to burn.
