    1. SE Michigan power outages: More than 230K in the dark due to storms
      from Ken Haddad
      Severe weather moved through Southeast Michigan on Monday afternoon, with some scattered power outages being reported in the area.

    • SoCal: Southern California
    #NOAA / #NWS has been sending alerts for severe #t-storms with heavy rainfall and flash flooding most of today, covering much of #San_Bernardino County and parts of #Riverside County in !SoCal.

    A couple of those alerts covered areas near me. My personal phone got alerted for #flash_floods, but my work phone (which was also with me) did not. This illustrates why people should get NOAA weather alert radios for their homes and other places where they spend a lot of time. (NOTE: Your $EMPLOYER may not allow you to set one up at the workplace.)

    The alerts transmitted by mobile carriers are not dependable. In some areas, one carrier will have service and another will not. In other areas, multiple carriers may have service, but only one will alert. In still other areas, multiple carriers will transmit alerts, but there may be a few minutes between carriers.

    They used to cost around $40 at Walmart. You have to find out the NOAA alert code for your county and enter it into the radio. Then, when it picks up the code, it will emit a loud beeping noise, then switch on the audio of the nearest NOAA weather radio station ... which should be describing the alert details.

    In some places, the county-level alerts are not very helpful. San Bernardino County is one of those places, because the county is the largest in the lower 48 states, and covers an area from Montclair to Needles (multiple hours of driving apart from each other). But in most of the rest of the country, they are very helpful. For example, Wayne County, #MI (Detroit area) is relatively compact, so a weather alert there is likely relevant.

    I should add Michigan to that list. It doesn't show as bad on the satellite image, but during a phone call with a friend there, he said a wall of heavy rainfall rolled across the highway in front of him.

    #Daddy_A recently travelled to another state for a funeral. On the way back, they stopped in Detroit, #MI, to see the places where the baseball and hockey teams play. (After one of his back surgeries, he had toured the sports stadiums while using a walker, so there's some personal significance.)

    He also mentioned driving in some disturbed weather and a cop pull over scare. (Four cars in fast lane going a little over the speed limit. Cop uses siren to get them all slowing down and moving over, then passes them.)

    About 70 children in #Michigan hospitalized with #COVID-19 https://nu.federati.net/url/280879 [www nbcnews com] ...

    The UK’s B.1.1.7 variant (more transmissible; more severe) believed to be part of the reason ... but I’ve also seen articles where they say #MI residents have gone from 70% mask use to 30%. That’s likely also a part of it.

    1. In Michigan, a record-breaking number of children have been hospitalized with Covid
      from NBCNews
      Experts blame a more transmissible variant, which appears to be spreading faster among children and adults.

    @louis I'm going to say the expensive part is the treatment, if you get a severe case. Depending on where you are now, it might be relatively inexpensive to travel to Detroit #MI.

    Philadelphia stopped counting mail-in ballots for the night, so the pinkish color in #PA could turn out to be wrong. Also, Detroit had very high early voting and mail-in turnout, so #MI's pinkish color is also potentially misleading.

    Also, according to Politico, #Trump won in #FL, #IA, #OH. #Biden won in #MN, #NH. Maine and Nebraska allocate electoral votes by congressional district. In #ME, one of the two districts went for Biden (the other is not yet projected). In #NE, two of three districts went for Trump.

    No results yet for #GA, #NV, #PA, #MI, #TX, WI, #NC.

    No changes from yesterday's post. I don't have the time to follow-up with everyone individually, sadly. Please feel free to translate this as many of the regions left are predominantly not English-speaking.

    It's that time again. We are looking for regional judges for the Creative Commons Community Music Awards. Please let me know if you would be interested in taking a region.


    The regions we have available are as follows (two regions are already taken):
    Mid-West - #ND, #SD, #NE, #KS, #MO, #IA, #MN, #WI, #IL, #IN, #MI, #OH
    Southwest - #OK, #TX, #NM, #AZ

    #Canada
    #Mexico, Central America, and #Caribbean (including US territories)
    #Asia (minus Russia)
    #Oceania (including #Australia)
    #SouthAmerica
    #Africa

    In the future, we would love to break the regions up more, but having smaller regions this year has proved unmanageable. How much of that is due to covid? Who knows.

    For additional info, please see

    If you would like to be a 2021 (the award are announced in 2021, but the entry year will be 2020) regional judge for the CC Community Music Awards, get at me.

    These are the current regions where we need people:
    #GreatLakes (#IL, #IN, #MI, #OH)
    #Midwest (#IA, #KS, #MN, #MO, #NE, #ND, #SD, #WI)
    #South (#AL, #AR, Commonwealth of #PuertoRico, #FL, #LA, #MS)
    #Southeast (#GA, #KY, #NC, #SC, #TN, #WV)
    #Southwest (#AZ, #CO, #NM, #OK, #TX, #UT)
    #West (#CA, #HI, #NV)
    #Canada, #CentralAmerica, and #Caribbean (other than #PR)
    #Europe
    #Africa
    #Pacific (including #Australia)
    #SouthAmerica

    Please feel free to translate this post into whatever language would be useful for finding people in the region, but please note that I speak only English, so it will be difficult for me to coordinate with someone that does not speak at least some English.

    If some wants to step up and be a coordinator for Spanish or some other language, we would love the help.

    I am going to try to keep up with this as a dailyish post until I accounted for all of the regions.

    The minor outage area is spreading. Now both #MI and #OH are involved. The minor outage in #MD may not be related.

    The outage area in #WA now covers 7 counties from 35% in Kitsap to 2.5% in Pierce. #Puget_Sound_Energy = 70%
