I can point to a failures that I've been bitching about for decades: ridiculous forest (mis)management.
And apparently, lack of locally available water for firefighting.
But with 80 mph winds it's hard to do much of anything in terms of firefighting. Prevention and mitigation, maybe.

Secretary of the Interior Bruce Babbitt, among others, wondered aloud just why we insured such areas. "If these Malibu residences that are periodically destroyed were in a 20-year floodplain, they would never have been rebuilt or reinsured," he opined in 1999.

In her book, “My Fifty Years in Malibu,” Dorothy Stotsenberg described the devastation from the 1970 “Wright Fire” (28,000 acres, 10 deaths, 103 homes destroyed).
Ellen Francisco’s experience in the 1978 “Kanan Blaze” (25,000 acres, two deaths, 230 homes destroyed)
Those are quotes from "A brief history of Malibu wildfires" November 25, 2007

In today's news: The wind-fed wildfires have killed at least 24 people and swept through 40,000 acres in the greater Los Angeles area

There are only two wise choices: build houses that don't burn or do not rebuild in areas that burn an average of two times every ten years. But there is the third choice for people who forget the past: depend on being lucky, do not pay the higher price for fireproof construction, and rebuild flammable houses (which are cheaper to build) in an area that will burn again.

Energy company Edison International was sued on Monday for its alleged role in igniting at least one of the wildfires in Los Angeles County.
Bloomberg reports, "The lawsuit is on behalf of a group of homeowners, renters, business owners and others with properties destroyed by the Eaton Fire in the Pasadena area," adding, "The suit alleges a Southern California Edison pole holding power lines was the cause of the blaze that leveled the town of Altadena."
. . .
Meanwhile, it's only a matter of time before lawsuits are filed against the City of Los Angeles or even the State of California for gross negligence. These lawsuits will likely cite
* improper forest management,
* cuts to fire budgets, and the
* mishandling of the Palisades Reservoir,
given that city officials knew very well about dry conditions and wind storms ahead of the first full week of the new year.

It's still very dry here and there is no rain in the 10-day forecast. We haven't had rain in about 10 months. And the air is very dry, with a dew point less than 20F. There's a Santa Ana reprieve expected Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, but back to Santa Anas after that.
Normally, by now we'd have had at least a couple of rainstorms. So, back to watering the property and humidifying the house.

New brush fire, called the Auto Fire, broke out late on Monday in Ventura County.
