"It does seem like the hotter earth is generating more and more extreme weather for everybody," National Weather Service Senior Forecaster Andrew Rorke said. "When we issue a particularly dangerous situation, that's usually a 5-10 year event and here we've issued three of them in the past three months."
"Where you go from dry, to wet, back to dry," Cordero said. "It's something that's challenging to forecast, but certainly something California has experienced before. We have these super dry years and then, next thing you know, we're having these floods."
"It becomes really prime conditions for these extreme fire events and the Santa Ana winds accelerated the spread of fire," CSU East Bay Assistant Professor of Environmental Science and Anthropology Tony Marks-Block said.
