The El Monte roof problem, specifically
El Monte sits in Los Angeles County with a population of around 104,639. The sea is around 27 miles away: near enough to drive the wind, far enough that corrosion is a secondary concern. Houses sit on more land than they would in a city, which usually means more roof area per house than the averages assume.
What actually takes roofs out here is sudden dry winds that test every lifted edge on the roof. They also drive ember risk, which is why vent screening and Class A assemblies matter more here than the colour of the covering.
Then, less dramatically: ember intrusion through vents and open eaves. Most houses lost to wildfire are lost to embers arriving ahead of the fire, not to the fire itself.
It is worth asking any contractor to explain how they handle it — the answer separates the people who work here from the people passing through.

Ember and wildfire exposure

Marine layer damp and slow drying
The north side of a house here ages years faster than the south side, and almost every roof gets replaced because of it.
