How is it that the ONLY thing on fire here is the house and none of the trees/plants?

Plants can hold a lot of moisture.
Why would they invent a special type of fire that doesn’t effect plants?
Even if you thought the cause of the fire was suspiscious, why would that be eaiser than just starting a regular fire?
Ever tried to burn freshly cut wood?
Lack of knowledge, and understanding, is not a conspiracy.
Everyone dismissing the tunnels.. If the fires were started in the tunnels the fire would come up into the houses they were connected to.
Now what we need to do is see if any celebrities or what ever were out of the state at the time and how many
Faulty electric meters.
House burning because it was set on fire from something probably other than a wildfire
You can start fires, you can quench fires. You can’t really control them. Outside of “controlled burns” which this is not.
Fire behaves in ways you wouldn’t expect, especially in high winds. On thing you can clearly see is that the wind is blowing it away from the trees, not towards them. Fire can hop around in high winds. Also, this is a second in time. We dont know if those trees burned down 10min later or what happened.
ok, i’ll take a stab, an ember flew through the air and was lodged in the tall grass by the wooden deck. this caught the covered deck and gazebo ablaze which lit up the house. the most involved part of the structure is “backlighting” the rest of the structure behind it, when the main head of the fire, which is off camera to the right, approaches this structure, it will draw the flames from this structure into it and the entire area will ignite at the same time.
embers can blow anywhere.
Blue doesn’t burn
It’s struck by climate changes, no?
This definitely looks like arson. I believe the Studio City one was arson too. Luckily they put that one out before it got crazy.
Well the trees are full of water and the house is not, so it’s likely to catch easier than the trees. Still odd
insurance claims
This seems to be becoming a theme on this sub: Outrage at things OP doesn’t have any knowledge about, so it must be a huge conspiracy!
Everything at the top and the left side of the photo is burned…
Timber houses are way more likely to catch fire from embers blowing around than wet wood
100 mph winds , I have no idea why that can’t spread lit embers to a new place.
