In California, wildfires pose a persistent danger. While flames are the visible threat, most homes lost to wildfires ignite from wind-driven embers.
These embers, capable of traveling miles ahead of the main fire, are a significant hazard. They target small weaknesses, such as gutters, attic vents, and dry debris around homes.
Understanding how these embers work is crucial for homeowners seeking to protect their properties.
