New studies are finding the fingerprints of climate change in these wildfires.
The hotter temperatures and a drier atmosphere can be linked to heat-trapping gases.
But for other extreme conditions that led to Los Angeles' fires, discerning the role ofclimate change is scientifically trickier.
California's rainfall is also naturally highly variable, with huge swings between wet and dry conditions from year to year.
