We got the evac notice here in Long Beach lol. I didn't have the patience to jump on nextdoor and see how many people took it seriously.

Edit: Some of it may have been linked to where the phone number originated...the wife got the alerts for SaMo north of Montana, because that the address that was used when she got her phone number years ago. Overly redundant maybe?.....I'd rather them take this approach than miss half the people that need to see it.

Yeah I got the one yesterday afternoon. Kids freaked out when they first saw it so I walked out the front door, looked at the mountain behind my house, saw it wasn’t on fire, and went back inside.
I did as well around 6pm leaving work and thought Lytle Creek was on fire.

Last year a state employee was conducting a tour of the emergency services office for the county. They entered a zip code, which brought up a map. It showed the area, and cell towers. The computer could then send a text to all cellular devices in that area. They jokingly typed a warning about a pack of mountain lions (or something to that effect) terrorizing the area, "seek shelter immediately"

The problem was, it went live. Pretty sure someone got in trouble. It was on the news and everything. If I remember right, it was shortly after that fatal bear attack out here.

No water in hydrants, why; DWP turn off the electricity to the pump stations that pump all the water uphill, and of course, the dumbass city never had generators near the pumps that would kick in and pump it up because they’re too busy for decades to give money to people that never felt like earning it on their own.

Secondarily there’s an 11,000,000 gallon reservoir at the top of the hill there and Newsom and his state people thought it be a good idea to drain it to replace some bullshit plastic cover that’s on it right in the height of fire season.

You would think no one could be that stupid, but he is. Time for another drink at French laundry.

The over funded shitshow failure of leadership is on full display here in California.

Hopefully this is enough to get these idiots out.


Oh they can fix it all w/ a tax increase ….
