and in 2020 they took direct hit from hurricane zeta
and they will probably spend billions again to rebuild - again - and
clean out the solt due to siltation - whatever that is

correct me if I am wrong - 50% of new orleans area is below sea level
at some point someone has to move all this water to california -

re New Orleans - airport info
Lakefront Airport serves as medical evacuation point but needs approx
$300M in more flood protection funds
airport always floods during hurricanes
during Katrina they flew out 2,000 people but could have flown out
many more but they had to allow the runways to flood as part of the
city flood protection plan

re - st bernard parish LA
county councilor recommends that everyone leave mobile homes - saw bad
damage in mobile homes last year from Theta with same or less winds
this will be a bad storm for SE Louisiana - think very seriously about
your choice - you probably will face power loss for 7 to 10 days
there will be no evac shelters in the parish during the storm
everyone needs to get inside the levy system
many have not left yet
only pump stations are operational - might not be able to keep up with
heavy rainfall
stay off roads tonight
traffic flows on the interstates have lightened up recently - now
might be a good time to leave

New Orleans Mayor Cantrell said city now focused on its "post storm"

residents out of city, if severe damage/health threats

listening via Broadcastify feed
every call is announced and/or dispatched via radio
the format is :
tone (1 or 2 seconds)
unit(s) assigned - type call - address - cross street - zone - FG channel
repeated a 2nd time
then unit will acknowledge verbally via the dispatch channel - "Squad
7 has it" or similar short phrase
the Zone is analogous to 'nearest box' in Boston and 'box' in NYC and
'box area' in Wash DC area
506 is a Chief
"25 Operator" is the pump operator on Engine 25 - maybe
"Engine 17" is the officer on Eng 17
Squad 7 sent to EMS call at 1225 PM

Louisiana fire stations gonna get wrecked again?
https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/refresh/graphics_at4+shtml/100304.shtml?cone#contents
just as it comes ashore - sustained winds above 130 MPH - (maybe gusts
to 150 MPH)
taking a wild guess here - every fire station that was rebuilt after
Katrina is gonna get wrecked again - even if built to withstand a Cat
5 (which I think many were)

Info on Katrina 2005 vs New Orleans
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Effects_of_Hurricane_Katrina_in_New_Orleans
corruption caused the levees to fail in Katrina in 2005 - 1,464 died -
"Later studies determined that most of New Orleans' Katrina dead were
elderly persons living near levee breaches in the Lower Ninth Ward &
Lakeview neighborhoods."

lets hope the levees have been totally repaired since 2005

looking at the various twitter feeds from New Orleans - things look

people do you expect to die?"
anybody remember Katrina? - the levees failed - the feds promised to
send helos with sand - no sand ever came

hope they get contraflow up and running

Category 5 are the worst hurricanes - so you might say that Ida will
be 80% of the worst hurricane
we tweeted a map earlier that basically tells everyone in Louisiana to

Mississippi is out also iirc - gonna be a huge area that gets battered

MN chase on RR tracks
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KeBGgM0jMXM
When I was 6 or 7 years old, my Mom dated a Texas Ranger for a while.
He always had a gun on his hip - can't recall if it was a .357 or .44
magnum. His story was that the gun would disable a car engine during a
chase. No idea if that's true - he was a Texan, after all, and they do
love their tall tales - ha! I just couldn't help but think of that
during this video and consider he would've had a blast (pun!)
disabling that truck.
When I was a kid, it was a regular practice for the state police to
shoot out a radiator to stop a chase. The engine would seize up pretty
quickly.

I knew I heard a guy yelling - lots of construction work around here
today as usual - lots of banging and scraping and drilling as they
repoint the bld and install new windows - I think they are 90%
complete
approx 15 minutes ago I heard a clunk and a loud yell off in the
distance - then I could swear I could barely hear some guy ranting and
raving - I thought a worker had nearly cut off another workers leg or
something - but no action on 460.60
the guy yelled for about 10 minutes - I noticed the yelling stopped -
then my keys started to work again
years ago - I always had to retype 'hospital' on my keyboard - that
was maybe 2000 to 2010 - then a certain guy moved out or died - in
fact there were 2 of them - on 12th flr and 14th flr - then 'hospital'
was OK but some other word was problematic iirc

leave my computer - either via Net chord or wifi

Calif OES has deployed 400 engines
https://twitter.com/Cal_OES/status/1430640779635040258
not sure on the actual numbers
the program works this way - OES gives a pumper to a local FD - the
local FD promises to staff the pumper with 4 firefighters and send
them anywhere in the state when requested by OES - otherwise the FD
can use the pumper as a reserve or secondary pumper for their local
needs - OES pays the salaries of the firefighters when they are on OES
duty
the large fires in California typically see responses from local
government engines plus CalFire engines + federal engines + OES
engines
OES has 2 statewide radio channels for OES engines - 154.22 R and 154.16 R

Japan - video - kids in crosswalk bow
https://youtu.be/jUv9OXSJO30
dont know what the law is in Japan
but in Massachusetts iirc the driver has to stop if the pedestrian is
in crosswalk and within ?6? feet of car
in this video it could be nearly impossible for this driver to see
those kids on that sidewalk - depending on what vehicles are in the
other lane

the engines at the scene are probably only working 12 hours per day -
they probably need more manpower - 10 buses from NYC could bring them
1,000 able bodied fire trained people to pull hoselines & use rakes -
hell Nassau County alone could probably supply 1,000 people
even if they want 500 more engines - they can probably get 100 out of
Phoenix area and 200 from Chicago area and 50 from Las Vegas area and
1,000 from New York City area (3,000 miles at 60 MPH = 50 hours)

Boston outlook - wet, damn wet
https://origin.wpc.ncep.noaa.gov/metwatch/metwatch_mpd_multi.php?md=0855&yr=2021
"As a result, the heaviest rainfall should tend to be noted along and
to the left of the storm track going toward midday, with more shallow
convective bands riding up along the eastern flank of the system."
"It should be noted that the antecedent conditions across the region
are rather wet given the recent rainfall from Post-T.C. Fred just a
few days ago, so these heavy rains associated with Henri will
encourage some more efficient runoff concerns."
--------------------
To summarize - downtown Boston will get drowned by rain, high tide, 3
foot storm surge, and 3 major flooding rivers - right?

The crew departed from the city of Pavia and is heading to the town of
Voghera which is a 30 km drive, I can say it by the chat between
driver and team chief. Btw I live in the nearbys and Voghera has its
own fire department, the crew from Pavia, which is the main city of
the region, was going there as a support for sure.

In addition, for a complete understanding of the video, the video ends
when the crew gets out of the city and head for the countryside, the
driver cut off the siren because it bothers them and there's no
traffic (the driver asks directly for it to the chief leader 😄)

Dubai is finally fixing its sewer system
https://youtu.be/b5_8Q4X05ME

not kidding - this 8 minute video explains the story
