Why the Gap Between the Dry Season and The Wet Season Greatly Affect How Wildfires Play Out in Mediterranean Climates

“Why do the timing of the dry season’s end and the wet season’s arrival greatly affect how wildfires play out in Mediterranean climates?”
Mediterranean climates are marked by their dry and wet seasons. And the longer there is time between them, the more likely the foliage that grew during the wet season will become incredibly flammable by the arrival of the dry season. If the timing is short, the foliage will be moist enough to keep down obscene flammable activity. This is Why the Gap Between the Dry Season and The Wet Season Greatly Affect How Wildfires Play Out in Mediterranean Climates.
