Answer to Question 1

Answer: Pacific Decadal Oscillation (PDO)

Answer to Question 2

Answer: The Santa Ana brings the combination of high temperatures, low humidity, and strong wind. The native vegetation, the chaparral, serves as fuel. The stage is set for a wildfire once the chaparral is ignited and the Santa Ana winds begin to blow.
