[BC] California Fires, How's everyone doing?

[RichardBJohnson at comcast.net]

I heard that there were some folks taking "credit" for
burning out the "evil, rich, destroyers of the earth,"
who live in the area, but don't think it is too credible
because most folks in the affected area have jobs
that pay, and those who don't, can't afford the gasoline
to get up into those hills.

FYI, Spanish vientos de Sanatanas "winds of Satan,"
i.e., devil winds have nothing to do with Santa Ana.
Locals know it's  Sanatana winds having been
historically-rewritten by the media for the past
half century to "credit" some town. These devil
winds originate in the high desert and encounter
compressive downslope heating as they make
their way to the sea, against the prevailing
Westerlies. Once a canyon starts on fire, those
100 mph winds will make sure that everything
is burned. The only thing that will stop the
fire is a low-pressure area moving in and
changing the circulation with damp air from
the ocean.
