CAR in dry California

Is Cedar Apple Rust a concern in dry California? My neighbor has huge cedar trees in their backyard and I have a narrow spot along the fence to grow Apples as an espalier. FWIW, I have healthy M-111 rootstocks growing in pots close by and no signs of CAR. Thanks!

white cedar we have here also hosts CAR. i think it needs high humidity to to be a problem.
