It's becoming normal to have multiple fires and thousands of firefighters active during the hot dry months in California.
July and August this year have been particularly bad. Six people have died between the Ferguson and Carr fires. On my drive back to San Francisco from Los Angeles yesterday it was a common topic on AM radio; some very interesting details and guests (but very depressing too).
I don't think it's known what caused the Ferguson fire yet, but the Carr started after a vehicle malfunction. I saw that some idiot in Sacramento started a few small fires last week and was quickly arrested.
