Water is becoming a major issue in the Southern California fires.

As crews battled the wildfire in Pacific Palisades, they put so much strain on the water system that the fire hydrants ran dry.

The fires have also fed ash into the water supply, leading to a boil order notice.

One portable generator can produce as much carbon monoxide as hundreds of cars. Carbon monoxide can kill in minutes and is a gas you can't see or smell. In a crisis people are not always thinking clearly. Reach out to your friends/relatives and make sure they remember to put their generator outside.
