From my understanding the water towers had completely ran out of water and pumps couldn’t keep up. There’s was no issue with volume through the existing water system, there’s just no way to contain a fire that big. They should be taking preventative measures such as raking the forest.

Can’t tell if this is idiocy or peak satire.
Well done.
Oh it’s even better than that. They’re referencing a direct quote from trump.

I was aware of that, but thank you for providing context!

The fire grew this big due to high winds from the giant winter storm earlier in the week. Winds were too high to use planes/helicopters.
This is just peak ignorance. A quick search says the US has 200-300 firefighting planes and even lists 6 different varieties.
