Quite frankly, after listening to Dr Swain's briefing, there is one segment of the population that should probably #evacuate for #Hilary...
He said there was the possibility of alluvial fan activation. these are ancient flows from large storms similar to what's expected that carried sediment and boulders into the desert plains.
The problem is, we not so bright humans have built homes on them. like this 2005 development in Rancho Mirage.
The fire guy in the #Kelowna briefing just talked about a close call last night where firefighters had to take unnecessary risks to save someone who had refused to #evacuate.
DON'T be that person! This one worked out, but you could have died, and the firefighters could have gone with you.
Thinking about #Yellowknife today as people #evacuate their homes today because of #wildfires. This is near the Arctic Circle. It feels like there is no safe place on earth. #climatechange This image is a screenshot using the Living Earth app.

Confirmed. 2 new starts/ember jump fires on the east side of the lake. Residents north of #Kelowna need to #evacuate now! #CanadianWildfires
"2 fires now reported on Kelowna side of lake
(UPDATE: @ 11:45 pm) - Central Okanagan Emergency Operations has now confirmed tactical evacuations underway in Clifton & McKinley Landing areas."
"no mention of those evacuations expanding to Glenmore, but fire has crested the hill & is moving towards the area of Glenmore & Union."

#Occupier authorities lied to #Ukrainian #civilians that the #Kakhovka #dam, telling them it was intact, then admitting the truth once the water arrived.
The #Russians had already taken their boats and laid #mines.
Then the Russians refused to #evacuate people.

Evacuate in time
Stable building gives no peace of mind

The #wildfire situation in Halifax is a good reminder that you should have and maintain a go bag so that if you have to leave home in a moment’s notice you’re ready. Additionally, keep critical documents and medicine in an easy to reach location.
Being prepared now will save lives later.
Fires, flooding, earthquakes, hurricanes, and many man-made hazards are some of the reasons why you may need to #evacuate.

Since moving to the #sunshine #state from #colorado more than a decade ago, we #evacuated our home on the east coast barrier island 5-6 times. So 3 years ago, we moved 5 miles inland and we have not felt the need to #evacuate. Not to say that we won't high-tail it out of here under the worst-case. My #meteorology degree does comes in handy.🌀
