You have no idea wtf you’re talking about. Look up pyroconvective effects of large fires. Climate change has nothing to do with the extreme winds.

Why did the fire hydrants not have water?

How about instead of slavishly repeating Faux News talking points you employ some logic. You can start by doing the math.

A class C fire hydrant that is common in residential areas delivers less than 500 GPM. This is adequate to fight the fire at one house at a time, maybe two. When it’s opened there is an instant drop in pressure in the entire water line for that area because the pipes are only so big - usually 6-12" or so up to 16" for very large subdivisions. So assuming a 12-16" pipe you are looking at less than 5000 GPM at the water main. Even if you had fire hydrants appropriately spaced that would at most get you 10-20 houses worth of water capacity. This is further degraded by (a) the use of garden hoses by residents; (b) power failures at lift stations; © the fact that water pressure is dropping across the entire system.

In short, municipal water systems are not designed to fight wildfires of this magnitude and the amount of investment in infrastructure to make that a possibility is staggering. You employ a logical fallacy here - that if climate change were a priority investment would be greater. First, it has been greater. CalFire’s budget has doubled in less than a decade and there have been millions of dollars in investments. Secondly, it doesn’t follow that because a disaster occurred investment wasn’t made OR that because a disaster occurred the need for greater investment wasn’t recognized.

If you want to lay some blame - and it seems like you are that kind of person, you can start with society’s use of fossil fuels and from there move on to things like the homeowner’s responsibilities to create defensible space. Pull up a satellite photo of, say, Malibu or Pacific Palisades and you will instantly see that that is a rarity, never mind the California Fire code that requires it.

You’ve demonstrated that are you are fundamentally ignorant of even the most basic aspects of fighting wildfires. I would encourage you to exercise a little more humility in learning about these things and a little less misplaced arrogance.
