        Yeah one of the dipshits in charge is quoted in almost every article I’ve seen saying they didn’t have proper warning, but you can just search the NWS San Antonio twitter or the spc noaa website to see that warnings for an intial forecast of at least 5-7in of rainfall were issued July 3rd in the afternoon, with continuous updates and warnings issued all through the night as they monitored the storm. They did the best they could.

          Same shit happens during hurricanes in the South. Fucking dumbfucks say stuff like “they’re just trying to scare you for the ratings” when alerts get issued through the news then when their town and life gets destroyed turn around and do the victim complex shit.

          Effectively theres a good chunk of Americans that do not believe in extreme weather until the moment it actually hits them

    Why hasn’t the Free Market solved this? I can’t understand it, surely the Free Market is supposed to solve this because Government Inefficiency means that the government can’t possibly

Rules:

-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --

-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --

-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --

-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --

-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--

-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --

-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --
