    If you haven’t made an emergency evacuation plan yet, it is time to do so now. Ours is outdated, so needs work.

    But basically, if you’ll need to bring it in an emergency, you should know where it is and be able to grab it quickly. If you’ve got pets or children in your home, or if you’ve got someone with health issues, you should never wait until authorities give evacuation orders. Be ready to leave and to get beyond the danger area BEFORE the crowds try to flee.

    When #sonTwo and his wife were in #FL, they spent something like 12 hours one time getting from Miami / Ft Lauderdale to Tampa. Another time, they spent over a day getting out of FL into #GA, only to find that there were no places in southern GA with space available ... I think they wound up going to #MS to avoid the storm.

    1. 9 Test Positive for Coronavirus at Georgia High School Where Viral Photo Showed Students Without Masks

    Waiting to hear back from S about the conditions in the US state of #Georgia. If you have not been paying attention, the governor of #GA sued the mayor of #Atlanta over an order requiring masks.

    Some schools in GA reopened this week, and at least one classroom's students and teacher are now on self-isolation after a 2nd grader was discovered to be infected with #COVID-19.

    A high school student was suspended after posting a photo of a crowded hallway (no distancing!) full of students without masks, and the principal used the public address system to threaten the other students with the same.

    I was on the phone with S a couple of nights ago. She needed someone to talk to because her dad is hospitalized. His test results have not come back yet, but they suspect #COVID-19. Her younger brother, who had recently moved from #NC to #GA to take care of him, had been tested and is on self-quarantine.

    While we were still on the phone, her older brother (I don’t know what state he’s in) texted her to inform her he was being tested for #2019-nCoV at a hospital emergency room.

    She did not say whether it was possible that either her mom or herself had been exposed, but last I heard, her parents still lived in the same house.

    This is what happens when governors refuse to do their jobs (and refuse to allow mayors to do theirs).

    I keep seeing references to a decision made in #NY state, to send / keep elderly patients in group care homes instead of dispersing them into less-crowded situations where fewer would be affected by any one person’s infection. I honestly do not have the time or inclination to dig into it.

    But I can point to the state of #GA suing heavily affected #Atlanta to remove local mask-requirements and other restrictions. Instead of allowing local governments to respond appropriately, Governor Kemp said he wants people to voluntarily choose to behave appropriately. But he cannot be unaware of those who will not do so for political reasons.

    There is over a century of precedent (since Typhoid Mary) that shows (1) that some infectious people will not choose to behave appropriately, (2) that their misbehavior causes other people to become sick and die, (3) that the only and best response is to force such people to restrict their activities, such that they can no longer infect others. In the original case, it was because the carrier did not understand how one could carry a disease without any obvious symptoms. That was still a new idea at the time. In today’s situation, it is willingly choosing not to understand that which requires restrictions on what one can do or where one can go.

    Looking on the US "confirmed by population" map on the JHU site. Along with the NYC area, the Navajo / Hopi reservation area in #AZ and #NM seems to have some of the highest numbers of cases (per capita) in the nation. Also the New Orleans area of #LA and an area that looks like it overlaps southern #GA and #AL.

    I don't know what a "level 4" storm is, but apparently, they expect one tonight in #GA. Actually, I do have an idea: The #NOAA / #NWS / #SPC Storm Prediction Center has sent out #tornado watches in parts of #MS, #AL, #TN, AR, #LA ... so their alerts in Georgia are probably an extension of the same severe #t-storm system. S probably means that an EF4 tornado is possible.

    7:54 pm: Georgia becomes second state to delay presidential primary

    Georgia will delay its presidential primary scheduled for next week over concerns surrounding the coronavirus pandemic, a spokeswoman for the Georgia Democratic Committee confirmed to CNBC.

    Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp on Saturday said he was declaring a public health state of emergency in response to a growing number of coronavirus cases. He also encouraged faith-based organizations and similar entities to consider canceling public events and services

    The state will now hold its presidential primary on May 19 instead of March 24.

    Georgia's decision follows a similar move by Louisiana, which announced Friday it will push back its presidential nominating contests planned for April 4 to June 20.

    Looking at the #NOAA / #NHC site, https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/ , I see #Hurricane Dorian is still lashing the Bahamas with wind speeds of 185MPH (that’s about 300km/h) gusting up to 200MPH (that’s about 325km/h) and storm surge up to 23 feet (that’s about 7 meters).

    For #FL, it looks like the storm center will be North of Miami, but a storm is not a dot. It is an irregular roundish spiral-like area that can be hundreds of miles across. Nearly all of Florida (and parts of #GA, #SC, #NC, #VA) is likely to face some part of this storm.

    On the West Coast, #TropStorm Julliette is heading away from land, so its progrssion toward hurricane status should not be of major importance.

    After Quackenbush's resignation as California Insurance Commissioner ( https://www.insurancejournal.com/magazines/coverstory/2000/07/10/21521.htm ), he left #CA and went to #HI. He eventually wound up in Florida as a sheriff's deputy ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chuck_Quackenbush ). How does someone with a publicly-documented history of theft and dishonesty become a law enforcement officer, even in #FL?

    The indictment against the Georgia Insurance Commissioner reminded me of our own state's issue. AFAIK, #GA has not removed Commissioner Beck from office yet.
