Original Note:
When asked about the main obstacles to containing the LA fires, officials cited dryness, high-speed winds, water shortages, and staffing shortages. There has been *no mention* of an equipment shortage. In fact, many of their planes could not fly due to low visibility. https://www.nbclosangeles.com/news/california-wildfires/palisades-fire-firefighters-water-pressure/3597877/ https://www.foxnews.com/media/dramatic-apocalyptic-l-a-fire-captain-details-damage-from-wildfires-ravaging-city
