Like I know embers and sparks travel, but I never imagined this absolute flurry of embers

That is how fire travels further faster and can hop over fire breaks and highways.
The uplift caused by the fire can send heavier and longer burning embers higher, which then the wind can carry a fair distance away.
Embers are generally the spread method for fires but the winds in CA right now are extremely strong.
One curious thing to note though is that the heat of fires tends to create convection currents that locally increase wind - in this case that effect is just supplementing strong standing winds.
Its only southern thank god. Most of us are still ok.
Ashes tend to go up so that is partially what you are seeing.
- Make controlled burns the engineers said.
- Create fire barriers.
- Stop putting lots of plant life where ground fires might run thru. -All of this was said by Indians, engineers, and people from other countries where they have similar annual burn cycles. Yet here we are, “is it normal to see fire embers wafting thru the street like a lost vacationer?” So what do politicians do? Cut fire fighter funds for the democrats, and trump literally said “rake the forest to remove stuff that burns.” Like… The whole forest… The forest that is bigger than San Francisco… Are they gonna use homeless??? Cuz he’s deporting all the manual labor immigrants. Republicans and Democrats are not going to help you. They are the problem. Both need to be removed from office with extreme prejudice.
