I will admit that this tragedy seemed like a perfect storm of terrible circumstances. I may have missed it (and I admit to not reading through most of the articles so far) but I don’t remember seeing a fire truck in any pictures or reading about a fire department being involved in any way. Did this place even have a fire department? Maybe they had battery powered trucks and pumps that needed a charge.

There was nothing the fire departments could have done to fight these fires because of the high winds. They had to wait until the winds died down. And that goes for the aerial fire fighters...
