They know what they are doing.
It’s just not possible to get all the resources onsite on such short notice.
It would take tens of millions of tons of material and several months to put it in place.
They are doing what they can, which is minuscule compared to the problem to be solved.
Yet they labor away, day and night.
And hope the rain is lighter than expected.
Obviously there is a concern they cannot prevent a wall of water, else they would not have started evacuations.. I have been watching this unfold since the rupture was first noticed last week...
Personally, I think people should have been 'warned' to be prepared to flee last Thursday... I thought it was typically 'liberal' to wait until Sunday afternoon and then call for evacuations...
That is what I meant by having doubts these in power know what they are doing.
