#Broward County #Florida schools will require all bags brought by students to be clear next school year, bringing back a safety measure briefly tried at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High after the 2018 shooting.

#Broward #SouthFlorida

There are crazy long lines at south #Florida gas stations and some are completely out of fuel. The recent rains flooded Port Everglades ( #FortLauderdale ) which is the region’s major fuel distribution center. Many homes were #flood damaged and people lost all their belongings to water damage. Ron #DeSantis is on tour promoting his book and has not visited the impacted areas of #Miami-Dade and #Broward counties. What a surprise.

#Miami has officially reached #911 saturation. The following #EAS just went out for #Broward County: The Broward Sheriff's Office Regional Communications Division is being inundated with non-emergency 911 calls regarding the inclement weather. Remember, 911 is only to be used for true emergencies. The non-emergency number is (954) 764-HELP (4357). Motorists are urged to stay off the roadways until the flooding has subsided. If stranded call for a tow truck. Source: Broward County Sheriff #FLwx

lol all of #SouthFlorida #Miami #Broward is flooded from some spring rain but Rick Scott said we can’t say climate change in Florida so guess I’ll die

I worked with a guy who loved #thunderstorms and always wanted to experience a #hurricane.

I kept telling him he absolutely did not want that experience, but he always dismissed me.

After #Andrew, he never wanted to go through another one.

And we were spared in #Broward county from a direct hit thanks to a southward wobble in the last 12-16 hours before landfall that sent the eye south of #Miami, instead.

Hurricanes aren't just big thunderstorms, they're destructive killers.

#Broward socialists have picked Black Liberation
