Thanks for that link. The data also shows that, over a longer (millennia) timescale, California is currently in a wet period. Context is very important. Climat

  California leaving a wet period will make it burn less. The problem isn't a lack of water. It's that we get a ton of water for a year or two. A bunch of stuff grows. Then we get no water for many years. All that stuff that grew in the wet years dries out. Eventually it burns. If we just enter a dry period, there is only 1 step: no water, nothing grows. No more fires.

    Yes, once it's fully into the dry period. The transition period involves a lot of fire.
