LA is in the subtropics latitude, which means that the 4 seasons don’t exist. Instead there is the wet season (spring, summer) and the dry season (autumn, winter). So because we are coming to the mid-ending of the dry season, that’s when most of the wildfires hit, as the soil is at its driest.
Bro isn’t in the middle of winter in the yankee hemisphere?? We’re the ones who’re meant to be on fire rn

Having spent 30 years in socal, uh, not quite.
December-March are by far the rainiest months in LA. Of the ~14" of rain LA gets a year, it gets ~12" of that rain in the winter months
