The older burn scars regenerate foliage rather quickly, trees not so much but manzanita is pretty resiliant. Debris flows have been a problem for a long time, I don't see that this year is any worse than other ones.
Debris flows = houses plummeting into the ocean from my flatlander perspective. Fires, earthquakes, landslides. Someday I'll have to visit and see!

The houses falling into the ocean is a mostly SoCal thing where they are built on cliffs that are questionable in their stability in the first place. Rare to have debris flows in metro areas on the coast. The forest service that is responsible for the national forests has been underfunded for decades so removal of beetle/drought killed trees hasn't happened. Earthquakes are just a function of subversion of the pacific plate. The Sierras are there because of it.

You are messing up my apocalyptic vision with your calm rational demeanour.
