Los Angeles County Fire Chief Anthony Marrone stated, "There are not enough firefighters in L.A. County to address four separate fires of this magnitude. This is not a normal red flag alert." This underlines the severity of the current wildfire situation, emphasizing that the resources available are insufficient for managing the multiple major incidents occurring simultaneously.
Col. Brian Hill from the California National Guard indicated that 200 personnel trained by Cal Fire are being dispatched to Los Angeles, emphasizing their readiness to assist. He further mentioned, "If the weather cooperates, 10 helicopters will be ready to start making water and fire retardant drops by Thursday," highlighting their proactive approach to tackle the fires.
