What’s your take on lightning vs grid failures as the cause of the fires? Any good reading? I’ve heard a take that lightning is taking the blame for the same grid failures as last year. That it has become unstable due to new energy sources. Any legitimacy to that?

I haven't seen any reports that power lines triggered any of the recent fires. This is TBD though since fire season was supposed to start a month from now with Santa Ana/Diablo winds, which are known to take power lines down.
