The no water in the hydrants is a problem with no simple solution.. You can only get so much water through a pipe. I don't know the size of the mains in the Palisades but if you open up too many outlets obviously the pressure will continue to drop. We have hydrants in my town that are known to be no good.

The no water in the hydrants is a problem with no simple solution.. You can only get so much water through a pipe. I don't know the size of the mains in the Palisades but if you open up too many outlets obviously the pressure will continue to drop. We have hydrants in my town that are known to be no good. Small mains and sediment build up. You can't get much water out of them. Eventually there will be zero pressure, perhaps even negative pressure if engines are pulling too much. Being hilly terrain there will be much better pressure at lower elevations. I saw a guy on TV saying when he evacuated he put his sprinklers on the roof turned on the water and left. How many others did this?
Right now, we are living in a world where sometimes there just isn't enough fire in California.
It's like how there are too many coffee drinkers. There just isn't enough land or climate to grow enough coffee beans. For coffee they are talking about substitutes. At prices that are already unaffordable in a world run on debt, AKA "Spare No Expense."
In the 1980s over 30-percent of the food was processed. Artificial. Substitutes. Like McCormick's gravy packets. That figure as grow to over 70-percent today. So has the number of obese people. And Type II Diabetes. There just isn't enough real food to feed 8-billion people. Meanwhile, anything in a bag or box will kill you. And look at the prices you pay for food today. Look at the prices you pay for house and homeowner's insurance -- not just in California.
Is there a substitute for water? Is there a substitute for fire? Meanwhile anything combustible (like houses) will kill you in a fire. And look at the price you pay for insurance -- if you can get it.
Someday all this stops, like when California Insurance Companies cancelled the homeowner's insurance for tens of thousands of "insureds," just 3-months before the fires -- probably all set by insurance arsonists. Like in Hawaii.
Your house, your car, your bank, your homeowner's insurance policy, your grocery store are all fires waiting to happen.
