LA is in the subtropics latitude, which means that the 4 seasons don't exist. Instead there is the wet season (spring, summer) and the dry season (autumn, winter). So because we are coming to the mid-ending of the dry season, that's when most of the wildfires hit, as the soil is at its driest.

Having spent 30 years in socal, uh, not quite.

December-March are by far the rainiest months in LA. Of the ~14" of rain LA gets a year, it gets ~12" of that rain in the winter months
