Houston Mayor issues Mandatory evac notice

[HereWeGoAgain]

No they havent, good for them,

So who plans for 800 to 1,000 year events?

Can you name these experts that can prevent such natural destruction?

Who along the Gulf Coast and the Atlantic seaboard plans for 800 to 1,000 year events?

there will be a time and place for a public reckoning.....

By critics who don't live there or know anything about it?

No what most reasonable people understand is it's a time to save lives, heal and help them rebuild, not criticize...

You dont live in the affected area...

I did for over 50 years, I know the area well, a hell of lot better than you do...

I have family and friends affected by it and have spoken with them numerous times, who is it you know that lives there now?

How much have you donated for relief? Oh that's right all you have done is criticize them...

why the hell are you commenting...

Because idiots like you are critical of something you have no real understanding of...

first point I answered no shit..........agreed on that little part of you rant....doesnt excuse inaction
Second quote Time and place ...meaning after people are tended too...you keep looking to smear me with things I didnt say but figments of your imagination

third quote.......doesnt matter if I know anyone there,,,this isnt the dark ages.......news is worldwide 24/7....meaning people can be equally informed .....
So again follow your own advice and shut up since you arent there....

Customer of mine had a son in the area in company with another early 20's male. Their plan was to ride it out in the truck they had, father persuaded them to leave no doubt saving their lives ........

If they were dumassess maybe.
If the waters rose so high so fast I have my Yaks to escape if my lifted truck which will handle around 4ft of water becomes no longer viable.
But I digress .....you know whether you're going to flood long before it happens through flood warnings. This isnt a flash flood were talking about but a slow increase of water depth.

And again...Katrina 1388 dead.
Harvey...50.

When you consider the population disparity Houston obviously took the right action. The death toll is ridiculously lopsided.
N.O. pop = 391,495
Hou. pop = 2.303 million. And that only includes the city limits. Add the surrounding area and it goes over 5 mill.

Even when evacuations are mandatory, people still refuse to leave..........It is obvious other areas may be affected by the release of the water from the resevoirs...........

Anyone who's been through a hurricane and tried to leave would understand how difficult it is.......You get stuck out there with no place to stay........hundreds of miles and hotels all booked up...........so some refuse to leave........

 

[BULLDOG]

what an ass......too dangerous to issue before... yeah thats it...now thats its under water it should be so much easier.
Houston mayor issues new mandatory evacuation | Daily Mail Online

About 50 deaths so far from Harvey. In the last evacuation, there were about 100 evacuation related deaths before the hurricane even made landfall. It's a rough and traumatic time for everybody, and it's tempting to Monday morning quarterback to find someone to blame for the massive loss of lives and property, but the choice to not evacuate before Harvey hit was the right choice.

If you have a plan, evacuation deaths will be at a minimum.

They didn't evacuate. That doesn't mean they didn't have a plan.

You're looking silly at this point.

There are times you evac and times you shelter in place.
Sheltering in place was obviously the right call in this situation.

Does he fuken have a plan!! The Nat Guard has been pulling people out yet their efforts pale compared to the civilian response.
Every fourth vehicle had a boat behind it and they were all connected to Zello which directed the rescuers to the homes where they were needed.
Again...do you live in a hurricane zone?
