The media personality believes that the substantial rain in Los Angeles caused an electrical box near his driveway to 'pop,' and in turn, set a trash can on fire.
The flames spread to a nearby tree and surrounding shrubbery.
Ryan told his listeners: 'You're so grateful no one is hurt. You're so grateful you're there to find it,' via UsWeekly.
The former American Idol host said he would have had worse damage if he didn't move his car earlier further away from the location of where the fire started on Sunday.
