Over 20 years the USA spent usd 8 trillion on wars.....but neglected to spend on infrastructure so now we have fire hydrants on low pressure running dry.... And this in the "richest" country in the "richest" State is unacceptable.
Richest state is just a talking point. They need federal help to stay a float. What horrible leadership. That mayor that took 17.5 million away from the fire department needs to go.....
@pikaskew leadership also.. all that's needed is some forestry work.. not decimating the forest just clearing up near homes and whatnot so this don't happen as much. All those dead trees that just sit there and turn into match sticks. That stuff needs to be removed from time to time and did you know if you leave a pile of grass from a bagger in a pile and you leave it sit and come back to it and open it up to the center it's literally red hot and ready to combust on its own and what it would really need to start is wind
People better pray then and ask for mercy and help. 😳 people aren’t as powerful as they think they are! Lord God, have mercy on these people Lord. Rescue, protect, winds be still and rain come.
@itsvictoroyedeji You can think governor newson For that 1. He's stopping all water from coming in, Well, he's comfortable Wild he's home living it up!!!!
Nobody is talking about the more than 20 semi trucks rolled over on hwy 210 and 10 due to the 80mph winds. I was there and witnessed it. I made it out in time. Praying that everyone make it out safe.
Developers, planners, and politicians allow these areas to become so dense in population but yet don't ensure the infrastructure for emergency response is able to keep up.
They cut 18 million from the fire dept budget, but added 130 million to the police budget. Maybe they can try shooting the fire's dog to get it to stop
My heart aches deeply for all those who have suffered such immense loss. As a vegetation inspector for this area, I have been on the front lines, witnessing the tragedy firsthand. Despite my relentless efforts and recommendations to remove the excessive fuel, leaf debris, and strike trees that posed a fire hazard, the regulatory agencies failed to take action. Over the past two years, I tirelessly walked every line and spoke face-to-face with homeowners, striving to remove the dead and dying debris. It is devastating and heartbreaking that none of my inspections were addressed, and the compliance cycles remained uninitiated. I was eventually removed from the area after inputting all the vegetation points for the prescribed mitigation. As an ISA Certified Arborist and a credentialed biologist, I dedicated myself to meeting state regulatory requirements, often staying up all day and night. It is profoundly disheartening that none of our recommendations to prevent a fire of this magnitude were heeded. I am deeply sorry for the homes lost due to the unaddressed inspections over the past two years. My heart breaks, knowing that this disaster was entirely preventable.

If he’d let the water from the recent heavy rain years stay in the reservoirs it would have been harder to explain why they kept charging drought rates for water use.
The water from lakes or reservoirs are treated before going into another reservoir which goes into the hydrants. That reservoir is low or running out. From what I'm reading.
I’m addition. Depending on where they’re pulling from. Pumps could be failing due to the environment and/or start to trip constantly, preventing it from properly running and or not allowing enough water to keep filling the system the hydrants are off of.
@@Tylnorton it's because hydrants are designed to be used to put out city fires. in a county whose population exceeds that of most individual states, all of the hydrants, running continuously and simultaneously, output water faster than the system can take in water.
Do all these firefighters and reporters that are out in all this smoke have health insurance? Not to mention, are all these people gonna be denied when they have medical problems due to all this smoke?
Yesterday after I came out of training with winds that pushed me I saw a red light during the night sky and I saw literally looks like a volcanic eruption of even a nuclear explosion truly terrifying and hoped it stops soon
Gavin Newsome, the guy who laughed at Fire experts and Donald Trump when they were told to do more fire mitigation and not cut funding to fire departments.
Perhaps he laughed, because it's not state land that's the threat. It's federal land that the feds have ignored for over 100 years and blamed California for.

My district refused to close today, but then after several reports came out back to back about more fires, they decided to cancel school for tomorrow. My sister was fine today, but I would hate for something to happen because of her asthma (it's bad enough for people with normal lungs)
It sure is bad, and these winds make things exponentially worse. I live in the Valley; there's windblown branches and debris all over. It's playing hell on my allergies. I couldn't avoid going out to the store this morning and as soon as I reentered the house my coughing fit calmed down. I can't imagine what severe winds are like for those who have asthma.
blame your parents for giving her asthma without her permission...because they birthed her without her permission..and if you have a family history of asthma, then tell your parents to take a road trip to pacific palisades
I have a friend who lives in henderson N C He had a tree go through his roof. He applied for FEMAs $700. And was denied. His insurance company offered him $300. Claiming he didn't have flood insurance and that his damage was caused by a hurricane. Good luck getting any money from the government or insurance.

@@michealnagy5763 thank goodness I don’t vote. If voting mattered it would be illegal. It’s a Left Right Paradigm.. both sides hate us.. it’s a dog and pony show
What gets me is I work in fracking in W Texas. We can pump billions of gallons of water out in the most remote areas of the dessert where there's no natural water for miles.... We create lakes of water in man made reservoirs to supply the fracking operation.... When we kick off, We are pumping 4,200 gallons a MINUTE into the ground at 10,000 psi... For 2 hours straight per stage, and will complete 200 stages in 2.5 weeks roughly. That's 16 MILLION gallons per well and there's hundreds going at any given time in the permian basin. LA is RIGHT NEXT TO THE OCEAN!!!!! How hard could it be to pump water to a network of hydrants to combat fires like this? If we can afford to pump 13,000 gallons A MINUTE on 3 wells close to each other at one time in the desert 50 miles from anywhere, we can afford to keep entire cities safe.
It’s a dry area as is…too many people are moving into places not suitable for a high population. Add to that the corporations that eat up a lot of the reserves like Nestle.
2025 an we using 1910 fire grids. Unbelievable. Nobody say hey. We need a bigger budget to expand hydrant locations through our the City an border communities as well that will assure water pressure is provided as needed when needed as long as needed. No budget approval. Yikes!
That's what happens when they send all their water into the ocean to save a fish that should have been extinct 100 years ago Democrat/ liberal policies. KEEP VOTING BLUE CALIFORNIA!😢
Its an issue of distribution. The infrastructure required to transport this volume of water this quickly costs an enormous amount of money. How do you get water from a reservoir far away to a fire hydrant in Los Angeles? Pumps, pipes, tanks, etc. are all not cheap.
Guessing you don't understand how pipes and pressure work. If forty firetrucks are hooked up to the same set of hydrants, the pressure will drop, and some won't get any water.
Seen document on the area,back in 1900s that was an 8000 acres of wet lands they built over towards the 20 century and left only 600 acres of wet land behind,it was a man made development
They’d have to still get the water out of the ocean by the gallon tons onto the fire. Do you think someone can just reach a giant hand into the ocean and effortlessly transport the water where it need to go…?
This is unbelievable. In the palisades there are all these fancy almost new looking homes. In that part of Pasadena/Altadena there are homes that have been there 100 plus years. That’s a really old neighborhood and even though there are fires out that way…it’s never anything like this. This is just beyond anything
I've fished the Sac for ten years. Never seen one smelt. Stripped Bass ate them all. Get ride of the striped bass and the smelt will come back. The bass is not native.
This is t local politics. Look at recent history on these same type of fires-- Those ppl knew & you'll gain info by the comments - but -its much more than local....
Why can't they build huge water containment tanks in the hills and keep them filled for emergencies like this? Are they saying they can't save that up over a 2-3 year period? Maybe even salt water, and endless supply from the ocean.
Water issues are somebody’s fault. Who is responsible for this? Who should’ve made sure water would be available during a fire? Why wasn’t the forest floor kept?
Make it mandatory for states with severe wild fires have fire hydrants checked daily. Prior planning prevents these things. Ya'll knew this would eventually happen yet...why??
I live in a small city of 10,000 in NorCal. We have three fire departments. They are cleaning up the forest around our city, and have been burning the piles of brush for a month now. They also go through the neighborhoods and make sure the hydrants function. Small cities can be taken care of. But LA is a monster. How you going to take care of it ?
Daily? Atlanta has over 26,000 fire hydrants. LA has over twice that many. Never mind that checking a hydrant requires opening them and flowing water...never mind that, let's say it would take five minutes to check a single one. That is over 500 hours! If you could travel from hydrant to hydrant instantly, and took no lunch or breaks, and no hydrant takes more than five minutes to check start to finish, one team could check about 96 hydrants in an 8 hour day. You're going to need 520 teams, and MAGIC fantasy world to come even close to checking each one in a day. And a hydrant flow rate is like 500 to 2000 gallons per minute! On the low side you are talking about flowing at minimum 25,000,000 gallons of water, per day! ...Besides ignoring a lot of the logistics here and requiring magic to teleport around...do you know the disruption 25,000,000 gallons flowing in the streets is going to cause?
Well it said 45 min ago when I just started watching 5 min ago- how the hell can news crews get up there B4 that 5 fires going to that level- Think realistically! At least we have some news!!
So heartbreaking. Praying safety over the firefighters and first responders. Praying peace over the families losing their homes. My family lost our childhood home during Hurricane Ike. Everything was covered by water and then sucked out if the windows. It feels like the end of the world for a minute... and then you are just grateful for everyone's life. ❤
Did Arizona declare to assist the frontline?? I mean at least send 15 units and keep 23 back at home… send the military reserve firefighters from Miramar ??

They’d have to still get the water out of the ocean by the gallon tons onto the fire. Do you think someone can just reach a giant hand into the ocean and effortlessly transport the water where it need to go…?
@@talisa222actually yeah they can have you never seen the helicopter and planes that scoop water specifically for fires like this?
@@talisa222 it’s called helicopters that are made to dump huge bags into the ocean just for this reason
@kyle896 buddy didn't get the part where the wind knocked over semis on a highway
@@talisa222 I want to introduce a brand new concept to you, pumps.
How long are the idiots in that state going to go without researching the term "controlled burn?"
That only works in a forested area.

We pay an extra tax just for wild fires. What did newsom spend it on? Did he lose that also?
He spent it on the rare and threatened one eyed, three winged tse tse insect whose habited he puts above human beings.
Government worker pensions. They are underfunded by almost $200,000,000,000
This is unbelievable. In the palisades there are all these fancy almost new looking homes. In that part of Pasadena/Altadena there are homes that have been there 100 plus years. That’s a really old neighborhood and even though there are fires out that way…it’s never anything like this. This is just beyond anything
Thank Gavin Newsome for saving those fish
I've fished the Sac for ten years. Never seen one smelt.
Stripped Bass ate them all.
Get ride of the striped bass and the smelt will come back.
The bass is not native.
This is t local politics.
Look at recent history on these same type of fires--
Those ppl knew & you'll gain info by the comments - but -its much more than local....
Is this a movie?
I hope everyone gets out safely. The fire looks like hell.

No, everyone did not get out safely. There were at least 5 deaths.
🙏🏾🫂🙏🏼
Literally
Another Maui planned event
This is so sad for the people misplaced and the ones that were injured and death!!!😢
They can thank Gary nesome
exactly. this is clearly gary nesome's fault. he's out of control.
Was the lady doing sign language doing it correctly?
Lord. Government incompetence.
Lord. Celestial incompetence.
Insurance claims still get denied
All those poor people. My heart breaks!!!
Im still in school, and omg, today felt like a fever dream.
School canceled today and the sky looks yellow
Stay safe
i live in the Riverside area, i haven't been outside in days, i had no clue this was happening, omg
Are you AI?
@@alyssaybanez1310Jesus Christ help the people who don't know Who You are!!❤❤!!!! Please Lord Jesus Christ!! Help then Jesus Christ!
@Azrael1486 no
Why can't they build huge water containment tanks in the hills and keep them filled for emergencies like this? Are they saying they can't save that up over a 2-3 year period? Maybe even salt water, and endless supply from the ocean.
The end is near
What happened to all the water
Water issues are somebody’s fault. Who is responsible for this? Who should’ve made sure water would be available during a fire? Why wasn’t the forest floor kept?
Why did they turn down white applicants for the fire department?
@@cripnamedbloodRacist.
The city cut the fire dept's budget by 18 million, but increased the police budget by 130 million.
@@cripnamedbloodbecause the whites are lazy.
@@OuterCraftis this true ?prior to it happening?
What was the actual point of origin/cause?
Nah something worse is happening this is just a distraction
If the hydrants are dry is there any water to drink or wash with?
isn't there a whole ocean full of water there?😏
Yes but the winds are too strong for the water air tankers to operate safely.....Its worst case scenario.
Maui 2.0?
NEWSOME IS TO BLAME!
Trump recommended to Newsom years ago to move more water to LA.
Make it mandatory for states with severe wild fires have fire hydrants checked daily. Prior planning prevents these things. Ya'll knew this would eventually happen yet...why??
I live in a small city of 10,000 in NorCal.
We have three fire departments.
They are cleaning up the forest around our city, and have been burning the piles of brush for a month now.
They also go through the neighborhoods and make sure the hydrants function.
Small cities can be taken care of. But LA is a monster. How you going to take care of it ?
Daily? Atlanta has over 26,000 fire hydrants. LA has over twice that many. Never mind that checking a hydrant requires opening them and flowing water...never mind that, let's say it would take five minutes to check a single one. That is over 500 hours! If you could travel from hydrant to hydrant instantly, and took no lunch or breaks, and no hydrant takes more than five minutes to check start to finish, one team could check about 96 hydrants in an 8 hour day. You're going to need 520 teams, and MAGIC fantasy world to come even close to checking each one in a day.
And a hydrant flow rate is like 500 to 2000 gallons per minute! On the low side you are talking about flowing at minimum 25,000,000 gallons of water, per day!
...Besides ignoring a lot of the logistics here and requiring magic to teleport around...do you know the disruption 25,000,000 gallons flowing in the streets is going to cause?
Guys! GUYS! Can the men in dresses still use the women’s bathroom though? How about some real news damn it!
R. I. P. Logen
Opens with such an incredible list of bad news with little information.
Well it said 45 min ago when I just started watching 5 min ago- how the hell can news crews get up there B4 that 5 fires going to that level- Think realistically!
At least we have some news!!
Why would you be breathing that in for a pay check
OMG! Protect us Jesus Christ. 🙏 🙏 🙏 🙏 🙏 have mercy Jesus.
Lmao Jesus ain’t gonna do anything. Typical American throwing up their hands to a god instead of actually doing anything
So heartbreaking. Praying safety over the firefighters and first responders. Praying peace over the families losing their homes. My family lost our childhood home during Hurricane Ike. Everything was covered by water and then sucked out if the windows. It feels like the end of the world for a minute... and then you are just grateful for everyone's life. ❤
Lahaina had the same water problems. Shocking concept. If you lose power you tend to lose the ability to pump water through city pipes or from wells.
But in LaHaina the hydrants didnt even have water coming to them
The hydrants are gravity fed and were topped off a few days before the fires. They simply ran dry due to the demand.
I'll take things that aren't true for $500
When you disregard the care for your forests. They burn.
This is really scary. 🙏
Praying for God to please place his safety and healing hands on the people of California 😢😢🫂🫂🫂👼🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Where did all the water go 🤷🏻♂️
It never was. California is largely a desert, with barely any natural water supply. They're in a constant state of drought.
Did Arizona declare to assist the frontline?? I mean at least send 15 units and keep 23 back at home… send the military reserve firefighters from Miramar ??
This is an absolute disgrace.
Who bought the rights to rebuild? And when was that deal signed?
I want to help but have no way to get there right now damnit
Just send some thoughts and prayers.
