Has anyone mentioned Napalm as the accelerant used in the California fires? here is the def
"Napalm was used in flamethrowers, bombs and tanks in World War II. It is believed to have been formulated to burn at a specific rate and to adhere to surfaces to increase its stopping power."
Can napalm melt an aluminum wheel?
We see these houses burn but not the trees nearby, spraying with an easy to make napalm flame thrower would look to do this type of damage.
