This evening I watched "How Long Would Society Last During a Total Grid Collapse?" by Practical Engineering, 1 of my favorite channels for outstanding engineering-based analysis of a variety of topics:

Looking into for my local county is slightly depressing, especially for catastrophic fires. I don’t see any evacuation route maps, and there is an over reliance on TV, Internet, and phone alerting systems. Being from Sonoma County, California, I know firsthand how these systems pretty much fail right away, and people are left in the dark about what to do, or even the fact that there is a life-threatening emergency imminent.

If you haven't done so already, check your phone to make sure you have EMERGENCY ALERTS turned on. This will allow you to get alerts for major weather events. They are loud, using the standard emergency broadcasting signal followed by a clear voice explaining what is happening. Better to be safe than sorry.

Because I have the Canadian wildfires on my mind...

If you have personally had the experience of evacuating your home in an emergency situation on short notice:

1. What were you glad you took with you?
2. What do you wish you had left behind?
3. What do you wish you had taken that you didn't?

I'm interested in any answers you'd care to share.

A disaster the size of multiple Katrinas is building off Washington’s coast

"The Coast Guard is the first line of defense against a massive tsunami. Will it also be an early victim?" Freelance writer Eric Scigliano attempted to answer that question for Politico.

Being curious at times about incident management, policies, or procedures has help resolve them more efficiently and with less cost. It's a good idea.

It is mainly intended to function in an offline environment during times of severe disaster, and is expected to play an active role... where disaster response headquarters are set up to assess the situation and respond to disasters by combining aerial drone images taken after a disaster occurs with OpenStreetMap and various open data tile data sets prepared in advance…”

Mayor Adams No

Contact your Reps; NYC needs an emergency plan: mygovnyc.org

Gothamist gothamist.com/news/was-nyc-unp :

"Adams described the thick hazy conditions an ‘unprecedented event.’ "

NO: it happened summer before last:
theguardian.com/us-news/2021/j

“‘This was an extremely fast-moving issue,’ Adams said.”

NO: we dodged the worst of Canadian fire smoke last week, but this week it hit us hard.
