This is horrible. I wouldn't wish this on almost anyone.

The far left policies of Democrats in California are literally burning us to the ground.
Stop voting for people who won’t use common sense water management and forest policies.
I’m pissed off.
You should be, too. pic.twitter.com/GYGu0EojU6

Grenell was Trumps acting DNI in his first term. Truly a maga bad ass
Honestly don't know but think about this...logistics. With those winds, can't fly there in Chinooks, nor any other aircraft. Need a lot of equipment besides just manpower. Again, how to get that there? Nightmare scenario that few emergency contingency plans would even be feasible.TyHolden said:
Is there anything federal coming? National Guard? This is getting way out of control.

One year I worked in the EOC in San Diego during the '07 fires. They can move 40-50mph and faster if driven up a hillside. This was before all social media, waze etc...trying to close roads and get info out so people didn't roast alive in the vehicles was scary.
Actually one of the major insurances companies canceled all the policies in our neighborhood about four months ago. https://t.co/JS03dsV9rF

I lived in San Diego during the Cedar Fire of 2003. Over 2,200 homes were lost. It was the worst in California's history. This one will likely surpass it. Yes, I know they voted for Newsom. Spare me. My brother is a firefighter there and this is not a joke pic.twitter.com/6xe4bqvvPp

They can work at night but the winds are picking up, not dying down as usually expected. Hydrants are running dry for the folks on the ground. Helicopters using the big tranches of water cannot fly. And the big tanker aircraft with the red stuff to snuff out a fire? They cannot fly either. Fires like this create their own turbulence, even without the winds being that high. Put the two together? Aw crap conditions. Those tankers cannot fly as low as they need to in order to hit the target.Quote:
Tends to be less fire aircraft working at night, but I don't know exactly why.
