Maybe no spark arrester or the blade struck a rock and threw off some sparks into the dry grass. Might want to carry a small fire extinguisher on your mower to stop a fire before it gets too big to handle.

These days it’s just as likely it was started by a runaway lawn rumba spewing flaming lithium.

Two Dogs, that is a good one. You think it was made by Tesla? The operator was probably sitting in the shade and after too many cool ones had passed out and the rumba fire alarm went off.

Lawnmower didn’t start any fire. Human using a lawnmower started a fire.

a) not on moderation
b) when did this happen
c) If you think Lisa and I can find out every thing that happens in our tri county area without help from our readers you must be the one with our crystal ball. Since we don’t have it right now could you give us as much info as possible on this. What streets? what time of day? For sure today? Ukiah Police or MCSO?

My bad. I’m exhausted after a rough weekend. Forgot you were on moderation. See attached screenshot for the multiple times you broke the rules in a week.
