houses however, survived with much smaller fire breaks.

especially for this fire, jumping doesnt mean that everything 2 miles down wind also burned down. buildings that far had the opportunity to burn, and if they dud, had the opportunity to burn their neighbors, and another 2 miles down.

i imagine ember density is more interesting than distance?
