Did you see I mentioned houses becoming engulfed entirely in flames in under a minute when they were a mile + ahead of the fire line? Yes? No? Do all the people just ignore important parts of the thread that don't fit their narrative?
MANY houses have terracotta roof "tiles", which aren't gonna burn one way or another.

Not sure there are many who are underwater in California.

That is not correct. Terracotta on steel frames are unlikely to burn. Timber frames are another matter.
Stick your head through the manhole on a terracotta house and you will notice a lot of light getting in through gaps. Embers can and do penetrate those gaps.
You also said MANY homes have terracotta roofs, so ... did any of those burn down or only the ones that did not have those roofs.
Not every one of those homes was arson. Some probably were.

Sorry, but I don't buy the idea of all these people burning all their homes, losing everything they own, burning their neighbors to death, because they are in debt. And all of them doing it at the very same time, too! Complete nonsense.
It is one more case of planned destruction, by the slime in power, as usual.
The ground is sprayed from above, with highly flammable, highly combustible particles - aluminum, for example. All this crap lands on our trees, and our soil, and our houses. Then it starts out of nowhere - but let's call it a campfire, or lightning strike, who can prove otherwise?
Soon, high winds arrive, by amazing coincidence, of course. In seconds, there are exploding trees, which are - of course - normal to see, in all low-temperature fires!! Scorched to nothing towns are quite normal, too.
If you see it as a conspiracy, you are called a nut. Why would anyone want to burn people to death, in America? Those are normal contrails, not chemical spraying out of all those high altitude white jets.
If your town, or your family, ever gets scorched into smoldering black ashes, you can say how it's normal. It happens all the time, now. Who really cares why towns weren't vaporized by fires before, until about 15 years ago!! It's NORMAL, okay??

Actually, I was watching a news broadcast a few days ago and thought the same.
It was on Fox, and the reporter was pointing to and talking about a house he lived in, literally 200 ft from a house that was burned to the ground. The camera panned around and not a single other house was touched and the trees all around were green. It was so strange.
I understand embers can travel and start a fire, but with it being as dry as they say it is, if that one house caught then it should have lit the neighborhood up.
It seemed very out of place and i thought the exact same thing....I wonder if the owner just lit it up because they wanted to rebuild or were underwater.
I would bet there were more than a few that did this.

You didn't provide any sources or even pictures to support your claims of houses going up in under a minute or miles ahead of the main fire.
So while it's fun to speculate, and I'm sure there are some instances of insurance fraud going on you aren't providing anything to back your claims.
