Held the first Monroe County Townhall Community Meeting tonight. PIOs in action! They said there would be about 30 people there. But…
…I think someone misjudged the attendance.
We had several partners that attended as well. Glad to have participation from Red Cross.

Seriously, just glad to see a familiar face in the disaster.
As the Official FEMA PIO assigned to the Florida Keys post-hurricane Irma, one of the markets is radio.
It’s not TV, but this is how many residents get their news.
Trust me, it’s bad here.
Glad to be a part of the team that is making a consistent solid difference in disaster response and recovery.
Change of plans this afternoon.
About to start a briefing with National Incident Management Team (IMAT) for response to southern Florida.
And yes, I am at home with T-cards on the wall and all C&GSFs briefing out.
Can you support the plan?!?
***********Update***********
Breaking news: I have been reassigned as the FEMA PIO to cover the Florida Keys.
More details to follow.
As we rally up at the Federal Interim Operating Facility (IOF), our FEMA External Affairs contingent briefs with FEMA Rregion 5 External Affairs Mark Peterson.
In other words, this is basically us forming Voltron.
People in this picture will be immediately deployed across the State of Florida to integrate into Command positions as a part of the Federal response for Hurricane Irma (4337-FL). Not only PIOs, but we represent so many factions within External Affairs.
This is a Presidentially Declared Disaster so whisper me those magical two words – “Stafford Act”
Aww yeah boyeeeeee, bring it. EA in the house!
I forgot to post this pic from earlier, but I’m in Florida. Are you?
Proud to support the External Affairs mission for the Response Directorate.
