OT-Hawaii wildfires

I've never seen a windmill that can push water into a tower. That takes legit pressure. My first thought was a trash pump like rural FD's in some areas use. Not sure about the logistics of that though. I wonder what they had for wildfire rigs if they even had any. Most of these social media experts probably don't even know the difference between a ladder engine and a wildfire rig.
This pump will raise 37 gallons per minute to 427 feet. It requires 1500 Watts.

This windmill generates 12,000 Watts as long as the wind is blowing.

Maybe not Pa Ingalls' technology, but could fill a 300 ft tower.
