  1. Oh bullshit. Local and regional planning has been going on for a long time. Hell I ran a team to work in Houston building regional response centers. How do you get assessment people in fast. You can easily customize these to an area. You will never be perfect but you will be very close. In Texas, the counties do not want to pay for it.
  2. Spoke with my MET guy. That little cell west of Midland could be fun tomorrow. He is pretty damn good. Not Jim Spencer, but did run MET over SW Asia for 10 years. Fucker can spot storms.
  3. That is what they do.
  4. Remember when I told you about that system off Mexico? Yeah.
  5. This is a challenge, but we have models. And they work. 1- Take care of those who need help. Food, shelter, clothing. 2- Analyze the impact and reality (this is what hurts) 3- Assess rebuild. What matters (This also hurts, and can be short sighted) So what do people need for the next 96 hours? Underwear and sock. Clean water. Access to a place to shit. Mid term? Assistance in debris removal. wet sheet rock is a bitch. Sanitizing floors. Air Vents (Overlooked) Long term. Hope. I was at a table today with some Longhorns and 1 Aggie. I said, hey, lets go up and help out. I have the gear. Only one who said lets go is the Aggie. @Homesickhorn is a good POC on the ground. We are fucking Texans. Lets prove it.
  6. Flood is over before they get here. Logistics is what commands response.
  7. Folks, I know this hits hard. Please refrain from posting the hit. We have members who have family there.
  8. Can we please focus on events and not philosophy? Maybe set up a thread on how to help?
  9. Bleach, come alongs, no clothes. Do not overwhelm. Water. Medical? Antibiotic cream.
  10. Me and an Aggie are going to head up Monday. Anyone out there need anything, PM me. His place in Brady got flooded, but we can use it as a staging ground and work the roads from the west vs. being another car going to respond. I have all the supplies needed to clean a house up, spray bleach, clear trees, you name it. If you know of anyone who needs something let us know. Asked the boss for PTO. He said, get the fuck out there. Clean water? Purification tablets? Food?
  11. Just fucking contribute. I am sure you can spare a night at the local titty bar for this. Shit, and If I won I was going to give you a ticket.
  12. Folks, this is a slow moving system. This shit ain't over. Just loaded up some ropes and a canoe on my buddies truck. Lots of friends live in vulnerable parts along the Blanco and San Marcos.
  13. And Florida wants to pay for their new detention camp with, guess what? FEMA funds.
  14. Still going to be a lot of rain. Localized flooding for sure. Here in San Marcos they are still saying the Fireworks are going to happen. Don't think so.
  15. Dutch intelligence services say Russia has stepped up use of banned chemical weapons in Ukraine https://apnews.com/article/ukraine-russia-chemical-weapons-netherlands-26a1bea82a7d1a57b581c60683628712 THE HAGUE, Netherlands (AP) — Two Dutch intelligence agencies said on Friday that Russia is increasing its use of prohibited chemical weapons in Ukraine, including the World War I-era poison gas chloropicrin. The Netherlands’ military intelligence and the security service, together with the German intelligence service, found that the use of prohibited chemical weapons by the Russian military had become “standardized and commonplace” in Ukraine. According to the findings, the Russian military uses chloropicrin and riot control agent CS against sheltering Ukrainian soldiers, who are then forced out into the open and shot.
  16. I love morning Baseball.
  17. I feel bad. I wrote a few pages back about San Marcos not getting any rain so that means we will flood. That shit is just going to sit over Central Texas and pound us all.
  18. Done
  19. Please not. I am not a Red State gov, but if this was said by Mr. Miller, well it is interesting. The bold. "Every governor of a red state, if you are watching tonight: pick up the phone, call DHS, work with us to build facilities in your state so we can get the illegals and criminals out," Miller said. https://www.newsweek.com/alaska-bear-alcatraz-migrants-detained-2093503 Oh, and FEMA is gonna pay.......
  20. Yeah, thinking about my masters in Slovenia.
  21. They are.
  22. Company asked me where I thought we should put an office in Africa. I said if you are sending me can be Timbuktu, Mogadishu, whatever.
  23. I fear those convulsions have not begun. We are just seeing twitching.
  24. One very nice rain shower and now nada.
  25. Nope, san marcos.So means we will flood later.
