I talked to my friend on the ground over in orange county tonight and he says there's actually enough water, the issue is more that the pumps they have can't accommodate the demand for fighting 4 brush fires simultaneously, it only generates enough pressure to move the water needed to fight 2 simultaneously. So when they say the fire hydrants are dry, it's actually more that there just isn't enough pressure being generated to move the water through the system rather than a lack of water. That's what I'm hearing on the ground at least.
