60 engines sent yesterday to the Cali fires are not on the fire lines...yet.

They've been ordered to submit to a DOT inspection in Sacramento that's scheduled for 4:30 pm today. If they clear the inspection, they'll THEN be able to drive 400 miles to Pacific Palisades. Talk about "looking a gift horse in the mouth." Then, on the way home, they get inspected again, and if they get red tagged, it's "fix it before you can return." Does liberal stupidity know no bounds? (I'm still waiting for a return call from @OSFM to explain this nonsense)

calif prioraties

out of state fire trucks sent 500 miles out of their way to l.a.

Smog Tested.

and if they dont pass...not allowed to help

just a lil gavin mis information.

boy this is beggining to look intentional.

like the guy the residents caughtn red handed with a torch starting fires

the cops let him go free guess multiple eye witnesses arent considered probable cause.

an arsonist with 5 burner phones and a UN credit card

100s of scooter born looters that leo wont stop.

this looks like war and commie revolutionary acts imho.

This is war.

Most people will not see it yet.

Pity because the upcoming horrorshow could still be stopped in its tracks now with relative ease

They can't have any of those firetrucks spouting any pollution - that would be bad! The horror.

Now would be a good time to remember that every single eucalyptus tree in San Francisco is invasive and wildly flammable, but the city has been blocked from culling them by busybodies like the @SierraClubCA (who also lobbied to stop prescribed burns in Los Angeles to tragic effect).

The Sierra Club has also been fighting to stop construction of desalination plants in Los Angeles to provide more water

“What good are engines without water?”

The engines obviously can be filled at a location with water and driven to the site or be filled by tender at the site.

LA has to make sure they meet DEI guidelines. That might take a month or two.

Priorities, priorities.;-)

Declare martial law and send in the regular army and its equipment, planes, etc to bypass state and local regs, keep order and fight fires

The people of CA should be rounding up politicians and bureaucrats for severe punishments.

Most engines can carry 1000-1500 gals. Not a lot but for spot attacks it is great and can refill.
Even so a standard or brush apparatus can be hooked to a water truck or a pool. Keep rotating water trucks in not the best but better than nothing.
I assume the CANG has quite a few water trucks to help plus the reserves usually have transportation companies. Not to mention civilian liquid haulers can hook up to a fire truck to pump water.
Also, trucks and hoses and other need maintenance so having ones that can be rotated in with fresh crews of FFs.
All helps.
