As FEMA has run out of money, Secretary Mayorkas has announced Comrade Valadymyr Zelenskyy will be dropping care packages of Dom Pérignon champagne and Beluga® caviar to the residents of So Cal from his private jet (in lieu of $700 checks.)
First ever warning of its type, I believe, was the concern.
The PDS for a fire. Got it. He must have been community noted lol. See them a lot for tornadoes.
Very sad to see. Obviously, I hope for the best for all in harm’s way. If there’s any “hopeful” news on the response side of this fire, it’s that wildland fire crews from across the nation should be available in high numbers due to it being wintertime. So should air units.
I am pretty sure rates are frozen based on what a coworker had to pay a year (like 2500 from All State).
Some crazy clips, and those firefighters are absolute heroes. And of course it wouldn't be a HORT thread if the usual lunatics who are absolutely consumed by politics didn't do their song and dance.
Might want to ask California residents about that. 😳
Of course. Trimming, clearing and removing fuel in fire risk zones is winter work for wildland firefighters. There’s only so much that can be done though by a workforce that’s understaffed and underfunded nationwide. Wildfires today are more abundant and occur more frequently than they ever have. This crisis is magnified by growing cities and/or towns in high risk areas where more and more residences are being constructed in timber environments.
Were there any recommendations for mitigation and if so were they acted on? No politics please, genuinely curious what if anything can be done in areas like these.
We rent a house in Santa Monica every couple years, sounds like the owners had to evacuate but the house is safe for now.
The conditions for this event were extreme. Extreme winds with gusts up to 80mph + extremely low humidity on top of an already parched landscape.
Even Denver/Front Range and Gatlinburg TN ran into big events with extreme conditions. Don't know how much could be done to mitigate an event like this.

That’s really sad…those residents of California didn’t deserve this.Oh muh gawwwd, this Cali libtwattard doesn't know why this is happening to her!! >
Pacific Palisades resident rips LA mayor for overseas trip as wildfires rage: 'Where were you?' | Fox News Video
Rachel Darvish, who was forced to evacuate from Pacific Palisades, joined 'Fox & Friends First' to discuss the 'surreal' moment she saw the flames and why she blames the LA mayor for her response to the disaster.www.foxnews.com

Do you ever show empathy for anyone? What a warped mind to post this. Do you think everyone effected is a Marxist libtard? You seem like a deeply miserable person.

But is that an electric piece of machinery?Certainly wouldn’t have hurt. Worked superbly against wild fires in Louisiana.
The wind is blowing 100mph and the area has received almost no rain this winter.
You can, an do, remove risk my managing landscaping but in an event like this nothing matters. Embers are being blown miles thru the air and houses are made of wood in the us.
You should go fact check it. Trump spews untrue BS all the time. You're probably too busy playing with your dildos, though.
I have you on ignore because you’re a clueless moron, but this post is beyond stupid.
The bay delta project wouldn’t be built for more than a decade even if it was approved. And even if it were it would do nothing for this event as primarily about farm irrigation.
It's been approved.....moron! lol >
SAN JOAQUIN COUNTY - A project to move water from the Sacramento region down to Southern California was recently approved by the California Department of Water Resources (DWR). The $16 billion Delta Conveyance Project is causing major controversy around environmental concerns.
No more Delta smelt? The Delta tunnel project threatens their extinction for good

Wow, thanks for telling me all about a project I’ve worked on. I’m sure you and Elon know more about it than I do, was only my job for a few years.Decision to reduce water flows in California's delta sparks debate over imperiled fish

It totally would have gone straight to fire hydrants if not for those meddling libs!
my BiL is from Santa Barbara. said his folks are safe. About 50 miles from the fires and south of winds.
Gavin Newsom’s California:
“Let me get this straight.
• California is burning.
• All of its fire chiefs were selected based on their LGBTQ status.
• Gavin Newsom spent all of the state’s fire resources on illegals.
• He hasn’t called in the National Guard.
• The LA Mayor is nowhere to be found.
Gross incompetence.
Gross mismanagement.”
