Please remember that #brown #Indigenous people are being taken and not seen again, here, in the US.

I also want to add, #Hurricane season is a month away and it's predicted to meet or exceed last year and to be most severe in the beginning and end of the season.

The air temperature there is in the 90s, the humidity exceedingly high, car temperatures have a greenhouse effect, just like the earth, leading to a dramatic and deadly increase in temperatures, very quickly.

Shall we place bets now? How long will it be until republican governors are begging for disaster relief money and told to bugger off by cheeto and dog-e? Not old disasters that happened under Biden - new ones.

FEMA quietly removes access to New England coastal erosion hazard tool

Planners and resilience experts say long-term erosion maps had been critical

commonwealthbeacon.org/environ

The Coastal Erosion Hazard viewer on the Federal Emergency Management Agency website "predicted erosion risk across the coast for the years 2030, 2050, and 2100, and until recently was publicly accessible."

Who DOGE Hurts: Gutting NOAA

People who live in #hurricane & #tornado country keep their “NOAA #weather radios” handy...

In theory, it sounds like one more bad thing to worry about. In practice, it’s much worse. We’ve just had a demonstration of precisely how effective NOAA is & what we stand to lose without it."

Headline and text from article: Who DOGE Hurts: Gutting NOAA by Joyce Vance Mar 16, 2025 On March 12, there was reporting that the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) was preparing to lay off more than 1,000 workers as part of the Trump administration's "reductions in force" directive to federal agencies. Cuts like that call into question whether NOAA will continue to provide the early warnings and predictive modeling that help people prepare for weather emergencies in advance. People who live in hurricane and tornado country keep their “NOAA weather radios” handy, and they are especially important for events that occur, as they frequently do, when most of us are asleep. In theory, it sounds like one more bad thing to worry about. In practice, it’s much worse. We’ve just had a demonstration of precisely how effective NOAA is and what we stand to lose without it. Beginning on Friday, violent, long-track tornadoes with damaging winds of up to 80 mph and large hail materialized across the Midwest and South. This was the news Friday night. NOAA’s early warning system, transmitted on social media, radio, television, and by word of mouth, kept it from being much worse.

They fly into hurricanes for NOAA – and still got caught in Doge's purge

"this week, the #Trump administration could consider axing more than 1,000 additional staffers at # NOAA...

"People take for granted how accurate the #weather forecasts are," said Andy Hazelton, a NOAA #climate scientist who modelled #hurricane paths & was fired... "Forecasts are going to get worse because offices are understaffed"

Over a dozen of the snr leaders at #FEMA, including those w/the most #experience in leading #disaster recovery, have either been fired or have resigned, thinning its management ranks weeks ahead of #hurricane season.

The departures in the snr ranks are IN ADDITION to job cuts & resignations of about 1k of the agency’s ~17k employees.

The Week in Musk...

On the chopping block: The National Weather Service

Sub-headline and text from article: On the chopping block: The National Weather Service The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), which manages the National Weather Service and National Hurricane Center, appears to be the next federal agency that Musk will target. On Tuesday, Musk’s team entered the agency’s offices in Silver Spring, Maryland, Axios reported. CBS News, citing former NOAA officials still in contact with current employees, reported that the agency was told to expect a 50% reduction in staff and a 30% reduction to its budget. NOAA primarily gathers data on changes to the climate and weather patterns. The data is particularly vital during extreme weather events, which have become increasingly frequent as a result of manmade climate change. The fact that NOAA quantifies the effects of climate change has made it a target of Republican ire. Project 2025, a Trump administration blueprint crafted by the Heritage Foundation, called for breaking up NOAA, claiming it is a “colossal operation that has become one of the main drivers of the climate change alarm industry and, as such, is harmful to future U.S. prosperity.”

Pottery by Osa

It took me 2 months to complete this vase, which I made to honor the power & purpose of hurricanes. We made it through 3 strong storms last year. Milton caused a spiritual & mental shift moving me to “let go of that which no longer served me.” (That included Instagram, btw!) There is more to hurricanes than destruction & despair. They move nutrients from sea to land and renew ecosystems. I used #GulfCoast clays from LA, FL & AL to decorate the surface. #pottery #clay #hurricane #transformation

A large ceramic vase with a voluminous, bottom portion, narrow waist and flared neck, at the beach washed over by clear blue ocean water. The vase is intricately decorated with earth tones, and a light aqua glaze. Patterns swirl around the vase, just as the waves and water do.

Just saw this remarkable quote:

“We cannot change the fact that in Florida we have hurricanes, so we shouldn’t be penalized for it. This is why we have the federal government.”
--Orlando Diaz, president of the Florida Association of Mortgage Professionals

A wrecked two-story building with walls ripped off or heavily damaged. This was damage remaining from Hurricane Ian in Fort Myers Beach, Florida, several months after the storm hit in the fall of 2022. By Scott McIntyre for the New York Times.

#FEMA employee who got the blame & fired for telling subordinate FEMA employees working the #Helene #hurricane aide effort to avoid homes with #TRUMP signs spills the beans. Saying that the order was from higher up & widespread doctrine within FEMA.

" Rafael delivered a devastating blow as the first Category 3 hurricane to hit Cuba since Ian in 2022 and the second hurricane to hit the country in recent weeks.

The national electric system collapsed due to strong winds as Rafael approached the island, causing a nationwide blackout, government officials said Wednesday. " (not sure on status today) #Rafael #hurricane #cuba

#Project2025 is a proposal written by fmr & likely future leaders of #Trump’s admin designed to lurch the country to the #FarRight. It calls for making #ReproductiveCare — particularly #abortion pills — harder to get, eliminating the #Education Dept, shuttering the government’s #hurricane forecasting agency, building #ConcentrationCamps to detain #children & #families at the #border, banning #transgender people from the military, & potentially requiring #mandatory #military service.
