The heterogeneous topography of the region‚ working in unison with inland high and coastal low pressure cells‚ generate winds that can measure up to 100 km/h. Winds of this speed alter humidity in a way that increases susceptibility of vegetation to fire ignition. Furthermore‚ the winds are strong enough to cause power lines to arc‚ ejecting molten material that easily ignite dry plant fuels. Thus‚ the source of ignition and
