-Signs, Portents, and the Weather-
Can we get out of Dodge? The big U.S. cities least prepared for an evacuation REVEALED. Chicago, L.A. and Atlanta have NO PLAN for getting the carless, kids and elderly out during floods, wildfires[, riots, bombings, meteors] and storms
2022-08-30
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news]
  • Detroit, Las Vegas, Minneapolis, Atlanta, Chicago and L.A., either no evacuation plan or keep it under wraps, study says

  • Honolulu, Colorado Springs, El Paso, San Antonio, Memphis, and Indianapolis all have weak exit strategies

  • Residents should hatch their own plans to flee during wildfires, storms or floods
    ...and should anyway. The best government efforts can at best only take into account the needs of the majority, not the special cases.
  • Motorists can usually get out, the real worry is the 25 percent without transport
    See?
    No time to charge an EV before escaping. It's not like filling a tank with gas.
  • They include the poor, elderly, unaccompanied children, homeless, tourists, and those with certain conditions, like blindness
    ...diabetes, heart disease —the list can be extended infinitely...
  • This year's Atlantic hurricane season has been quiet so far, but that could change soon
    ...or it continue to be a quiet year, hurricane-wise. The models are so poor at predicting that we’ll have to wait until afterward if we want accurate predictions.
  • The Red Cross says climate change means ‘more frequent and intense weather events'
    The Red Cross joins the rest of the Global Warming true believers in believing what is unproven, and ever more likely to be shown to be untrue. But toothpaste and toilet paper will be needed regardless the emergency, so there’s that.
