Before satellites, drones and cameras, California was already finding ways to spot wildfires early. In the late 1800s and early 1900s, CA became home to some of the nation’s earliest fire lookout stations, helping shape how we detect and respond to fires today. #CaliforniaFact #ThrowbackThursday

🌧️ In 1916, San Diego hired a “rainmaker” named Charles Hatfield to bring rain using a secret chemical mixture. Days later, catastrophic flooding washed away the Lower Otay Dam. When Hatfield asked for his $10,000 fee, the city refused to pay. He left empty-handed! #ThrowbackThursday #SanDiegoFact
