Fires are much easier to attack in a city. Even though there may be more fuel in the form of woods, plastics, rubber and whatnot, Firefighters can access the fire much easier and faster given there's a semblance of a grid layout of streets. Part of this problem is trying to attack a fire where no roads exist, and until very recently, they haven't been able to use their primary attacks of air drops.
My gaydar was screaming fren.
Wouldn't the burning of homes create a thicker black smoke that might impede air drops in that case?
This is the Fire ChiefFire Chief just said they expect to get a containment line established "over the next couple days."
They are using firefighting planes to scoop up ocean water and drop it on the Palisades Fire because it's right on the ocean (source: https://ktla.com/news/local-news/watch-firefighters-scoop-ocean-water-to-battle-palisades-fire/). It's not a great tool for more inland fires for different reasons. You can't build permanent infrastructure to pipe it in because of the corrosion. Firefighting helicopters have to hover really close to the water to get it from the ocean which puts them in danger if there's a big swell so they generally need to stick to lakes and resevoirs. Trucking it in wouldn't make much of a dent because fire engine capacity is only 500 gallons and the hoses put out 150 gallons a minute.
Oneyplays is like the one thing that Lyle still does that makes me like him.
They got no water nigga
The mayor said it again. They are shitting their pants aren't they. I wonder what half a BLM riot would do right now.

It’s not really forest, it’s scrubs, grass, and brush mostly. Burns fast and hot, and as we can see, when it’s big enough it will level houses, but when it comes to the mass of concrete and asphalt of the city proper it will be harder to spread. Still presents an enormous threat to structures on the edge, and if you get a critical point of enough structures burning and scattering embers across the city, with the high winds, we could get a ton of flare ups across the city. Unless things go absolutely cataclysmically wrong though, it shouldn’t sweep into the city.
To be honest, suggest people hate Coastal and Southern California. These areas are the land of the fruits and the nuts, believe me. Get in a ways from the coast and people are more conservative, frankly more American, if you will. Many good people in Coastal and Southern California but they are outnumbered by the crazies.
Correct!
I know of no point in the last 10 years where anyone was particularly shy about their hatred and disgust for the state of California. Nothing is exposed by this. The hate has been plain to see for a long time now, I'd have been more surprised if I entered this thread and saw nobody gloating at all.
