Unusual. There's been zero rain in So Cal, and not much in Nor Cal. Usually the fires end in Oct./Nov., depending on when the rains arrive.
Also, last winter was a rainy one, so there's lots of fuel to burn.

Unusual.Only because the fires usually happen is October but they didn’t (in my area) this year.
