Yes I would heartily agree that this or most of these fires at least to me appear to be started by humans…I would speculate that none of them were naturally started. With that said, if you go back and look at previous “firestorms” even in 2003, there are ALMOST ALWAYS multiple fires that crop up… From Malibu to Irvine to San Diego the fact that they all happened at the same time is absolutely no surprise to me… Seriously though, look back in history and you will see that it is almost uncanny how that happens… To me it is just the way that sick people get thier rocks off… pretty darned sad. I know that is pretty cynical but…
Again, most anyone who is a native Southern Californian can attest that firestorms are rarely a single fire and most often are multiple and in some case many fires that flare up within the same day or two.
