Largest Private Capital Raise In Wildfire History!? $60M For Autonomous Wildfire Drones. Also, New Investigation Into Palisades Fire.

Text messages from firefighters raise new questions.

On Today’s Show:

  • It’s Red Sky Summit week, and the largest ever capital raise for a wildfire company just took place.

  • Seneca, maker of autonomous wildfire-suppression drones, just raised $60M to deploy its product in the industry.

  • This fully autonomous system can carry water, foam, and spray at 100PSI when responding to initial attacks.

  • The company has many familiar faces, including several that have been on the show before, Google, Palantir, and others. They provided a demo at the Red Sky Summit today.

  • A new investigation has been launched in LA after text messages from firefighters who responded to the Lachman were leaked, which rekindled into the Palisades Fire.

  • Fire weather is moving into Minnesota and multiple Midwest states.
