flag High winds in California ground firefighting aircraft, complicating efforts to control deadly wildfires.

flag High winds in California have grounded firefighting aircraft, complicating efforts to control wildfires that have killed at least 24 people and destroyed over 12,000 structures. flag The winds, reaching up to 40 mph with gusts of 65 mph, make it unsafe for the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection's fleet of over 60 aircraft to operate effectively. flag These conditions hamper the accuracy of water and retardant drops, which are crucial for containing the fires.
