Helicopters pick up water to battle North Bay wildfires
Helicopters pick up water in the Napa Valley to combat the North Bay wildfires.

As devastating wildfires burn in Northern California, helicopters are used to drop massive amounts of water where the flames are burning the most.

One area where firefighters are replenishing the water for their helicopters is Oakville in Napa Valley. In the video above, three helicopters can be seen filling up their water buckets to combat the North Bay fires.
