Convincing yourself that lack of water was not and is not an issue is just plain stupid.

I’m sorry that the facts don’t fit the narrative that you’re getting from somewhere, but the just don’t.

There was one reservoir which was down for maintenance. A desalination plant would not fix that. It is a stupid idea that someone pushing a “California Bad” narrative has Fed you and you seem to have bought it without spending any time on critical thought.

Now if you want to suggest we need more reservoirs or more capacity in the existing reservoirs or the ability to deliver water at a higher rate, those are sensible options to deal with issues that *might* have hampered the firefighting effort.

But I’ll wait for actual experts to take a look at the facts and figure out what the constraints were to firefighting efforts and not try to prematurely suggest things that may or may not actually help.
