Where is our ill-ustrious gubnah?
He will politicize this just like the LA gubnah did the hurricane in ‘05.
This is shaping up to be another political fustercluck just like hurricane Katrina
I can see the buses sitting useless in the corp yards.
Moonbeam will claim Trump sat on his hands as all the while Moonbeam refuses to bring in the NG allowing chaos to prevail.
The spillway doesn’t appear at present to be in immediate danger so evacuation should be successful. It sounds as if the real threat comes midweek with additional rainfall. What is the practical reality for these towns, is typical flood damage mitigation such as sandbagging and portable sump pumps out of the question? Is there insufficient high ground for emergency personnel and police to remain and go to work trying to minimize damage and prevent looting?
I’m sorry, my town (Marysville) isn’t waiting for the governor to come in to rescue everyone. All city buses have been evacuating people from near the river to places of safety since the order went out. Additional staging points have been set up for those who are unable to evacuate themselves, and people are being transported from there to places of safety.
And that’s being repeated across the region.
Though really, if Gov Moonbeam wanted to give a big gigantic boost to the whole ‘Jefferson state’ movement to break up the state of California, he’s done a bang up job throughout this.
Law was passed after Katrina. President now has the authority to activate the National guard to deal with emergencies regardless of the Governor.
