incredible frame, you can see the line of retardant and were the fire is going to bypass it because they dont line up
 
9,000 gallons at 8 pounds per gallon...
that's a semi load of water
There are exactly 2 helicopters that can carry that much; CH-53K and Mi-26
CH-53K King Stallion is a baby by helicopter standards and there are perhaps 20 produced in existence, and any chopper that's not been around for decades and made by the hundreds makes me nervous for heavy risky payload stuff, Sea Stallion is a proven chopper though. Mi-26's are old and proven performers in rough conditions; but they are almost all overseas. I wonder if a single flying one is in North America? Either way this will be work mostly done by fixed wing firefighting.
 
Sorry folks. This is the new norm. Its not going to get better. Fires are going to get bigger and more common. How wildfire starts doesnt matter a great deal. Its how communities prepare for wildfire events, that will make a difference and should be important. Until cities and suburbia becomes fire wise, more people will die.

Im the guy climbing the mountain with a fire rake and axe, to keep your fucking house from burning down.
 
I sold all of my portfolio and am currently holding cash. 14.5% of the US economy burning is going to cause a shit show reaction, especially considering trades are closed due to Jimmy Carter lol. Black Monday bros is it happening?
Well, you what they say about Black Swan events - perhaps it will be insurance companies pulling the plug that starts a chain reaction in stocks and positions are liquidated.
 
Equity is anathema to mission accomplishment.
Of all the words wokeoids have stolen and redefined, this is one I miss the most. "Equity" does not mean what these scumbags use it to mean.
My buddy is a bit of an atheist, but he's even he's convinced it was some sort of miracle.
Maybe he did something nice once for an angel in disguise.
And if by some act of mental defect anyone still wants to feel bad for them, I recommend not using too much energy. Nothing will be learned from this. It'll happen again within the next 2-3 years.
I'd hope this would break the deranged one-party commieshit that has been California. Odds of it? Not good.
I think that GFM is fake based on this Facebook post. Total Scammer Death.
Sad how tragic and disastrous events bring out both the best and worst in people.
It’s not glee to point this out, nor is it morally bad.
I'm kind of annoyed at the scolds who act as if this entire thread has been nothing but gravedancing when nothing of the sort is true.
Amanda Winn Lee, disgraced penguin-molesting pothead VA who once wished rape on a girl has confirmed her house went up in flames last night.
A rare bright moment to this whole thing. What a godawful shitty person.
biden just said via his press conference federal money WILL NOT be provided to rebuild buisness and business centers.
It's not like it's up to that senile doddering old faggot anyway. It's up to the senile doddering old faggot who is taking over after his lame duck ass is gone.
People will literally walk away from another human asking for food and throw their half eaten hotdogs to animals.
Sorry homeless people will literally spit on you if you try to give them food. They want money. For drugs.

Don't get me wrong, I'll throw a few bucks to them now and again, either because their story was actually amusing or just out of "there but for the grace of God go I," but don't be under any illusions as to how many of them are actually outright starving. Because it's bullshit the vast majority of the time.
Tranny's rotpocket surgery cancelled due to LA fires and he loses his parent's insurance in February :story:

Another bright moment. Maybe he'll reconsider his insanity and save his life.
 
With the number of aircraft all flying in the area, considering the high winds and the smoke reducing visibility, as well as turbulence from the fires, it's a miracle that nothing has yet CFIT into the mountain or crashed into each other.
