These fires are not climate change. This part of California is an arid climate, precipitation can swing wildly year to year as seen in the prior years which had a lot of rain allowing growth of vegetation which has dried out in the current year creating more tinder for fires. http://www.laalmanac.com/weather/we09a.php
