Well, if Newsom actually did want to be president, this is the time to step up and show he can do the job.

There are boats called fireboats that can spray water pretty far. They should consider keeping some of those in the reservoir.

Instead cal fire has the largest aerial fire fighting fleet in the world!!! Over 60 fixed wing and rotary aircraft…. $5 billion budget.

When they try to blame it on high temps, realize that the ignition temperature of wood is around 572-752°F (300-400°C) depending on the type of wood and how decayed it is. This is the lowest temperature at which wood will self-sustain combustion without an external ignition source. California would have to have high temps of 572 F for the heat to be responsible.

Be nice if you show where the fire is on a damn map 🙄

@Higher-Veda 5 күн бұрын

107 F is still 465 degrees BELOW the ignition point of wood, and 341 degrees below the ignition point of dry paper. Something besides heat is involved.

How to effectively spray??? only everyone together asking for the lord's help...Please call the name of Buddha Quan The Am Buddha until these disasters end. Most Americans do not understand at all about the power of Buddha...

Lord Jesus said "no skill" in the Ten Commandments, but daily people are still burning, and cooking animal meat... This is a karma law as Buddhism had been said in all Buddad's lessons from three thousand years ago.
