California firefighters say Trump's order for more water is useless

California officials say the Trump administration’s effort to provide more water to firefighters is useless and that it won’t affect the response to the dozen-plus wildfires still raging through the state.

“We have absolutely no shortage of water,” Mike Mohler, deputy director at Cal Fire, the state’s firefighting agency, told the Washington Examiner. “There is no issue in Northern California, and there is no issue in Southern California with water. The directive has not impacted any of our operations statewide. It’s been status quo. The real issue is the dry conditions and explosive fire growth.”
