Firefighters battling the Palisades fire dealt with hydrants that had little to no water flowing out. By 3 a.m. Wednesday, all hydrants 'went dry,' an LADWP official says.

Three large water tanks in the Pacific Palisades area ran out by early Wednesday morning, officials said, reducing water pressure for fire hydrants at higher elevations.

Erik Scott, a fire captain at the LA Fire Department, told SFGATE on Wednesday that the dry fire hydrants were predominantly in the higher elevation areas of the Pacific Palisades neighborhood. He could not confirm if water had returned to the fire hydrants.
