HQ, I copy the demob orders from Texas and Puerto Rico.
I also copy the new deployment orders for Florida.
FEMA Administrator Brock Long made a poignant statement about his employees today in the NY Times:
“…this is what we train for” – FEMA Administrator Brock Long

Yes sir, we train all the time.

Many instructors across this nation can attest the long hours we spend providing training for hundreds of thousands of our all-hazards public safety professionals from all walks of life.
This is truly what we train for.
Welp, Saturday plans will have to look slightly different now.

Better mount up as I *think this is for Texas.

Well, I don’t *think I’m going to need my tie, but definitely my best pair of boots.

Today, the State of Ohio Tornado testing all emergency alert sirens statewide at 9:50 a.m.
***Do not be alarmed, it is only a test.***

Do you know what to do if you hear a tornado siren accompanied by a Tornado Warning?
Keep your ears tuned in for the statewide sirens.

Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
Dear general public: Stop being mean to the National Weather Service, State/Local government public safety, and news reporters.
When “breaking news” occurs pertaining to safety, please adhere to the warnings put forth by the official sources.

Again, stop being mean!
Most reporters are generally nice and they want to report the facts.

For your protection, heed all safety warnings from official sources.
