The 117-million-gallon Santa Ynez Reservoir was empty when the still-raging wildfires in Los Angeles County, California ignited last week. Drone footage recorded on January 12 shows the reservoir closed for repairs that began on February last year. Despite blame being laid at the feet of California government leadership, experts from UCLA and the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power say that 'no system in the world' was designed to handle fires of this intensity.
