California firefighters are battling seven wildfires across the state (Credit: California Dept. of Forestry and Fire Prevention)

California's relatively calm fire season ended in mid-October with several simultaneous blazes that have since scorched thousands of acres and destroyed hundreds of structures. The largest fire, the Kincade Fire, has burned through 80,000 acres and obliterated 370 structures, including 141 homes, in Northern California since October 25, 2019. In Southern California, the Maria Fire, which broke out in Santa Paula, Ventura County, shortly after 6 p.m. on October 31, 2019, has chewed through 10,000 acres and threatened the area's tens of millions of dollars' worth of avocado and lemon crops.

          I don't understand how people still think its safe to live here when raging wildfires are THIS common in California, and how much damage each one causes.
