Trump’s contention that Newsom’s water management decisions were to blame for the severity of the fires is not supported by the facts, multiple water experts told The Washington Post. “There is no relationship between federal and state water management and the intensity of these fires or the ability of people to fight these fires,” said Jeffrey Mount, a senior fellow at the Public Policy Institute of California, a nonpartisan think tank. Instead, he said, lack of rain and severe winds created dangerous conditions. “Right now Southern California has ample water supplies, their reservoirs are full — they’re well above historical averages. They do a very good job of managing water. There is no shortage of water in Southern California, that’s just not true,” Mount added. He said some hydrants are running dry not because the region ran out of water, but because pressure drops with high demand, making it harder to move water around.

The president-elect is attacking California's Democratic governor for fire hydrants running dry during the fires but the reason is that the water is being used. For all the fires www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...
