(ANTIMEDIA) Miami-Dade County, FL — At a time when South Floridians rocked by Hurricane Irma were still surveying the damage to their properties, the county of Miami-Dade apparently thought it appropriate to begin handing out safety notices.
I’m twelve feet away from the northern eyewall of Hurricane Irma. Seated behind floor to ceiling panes of glass that can’t be thick enough. “Are they thick enough?” I wonder while staring at the murderous velocity of rain and wind that just a few steps away would lift me whole and launch me into the lake, a tree or another house. With death defying, tornadic ferocity the wind drives rain sideways in every direction at once. I hear tree trunks and limbs snapping like firecrackers off in the distance.
Hollywood snowflake, millionaire, overpaid actress Jennifer Lawrence said in an interview with a British channel that the recent hurricanes hitting the United States are the fault of Donald Trump voters…her reasoning is that Trump voters do not believe in man-made climate change, ergo mother nature is punishing those voters (and all the USA) for putting Trump into office.
(ANTIMEDIA) — After creating a path of destruction throughout the Caribbean and knocking power out for at least one million people in Puerto Rico, catastrophic Hurricane Irma is now rapidly approaching Florida.
As Americans continue to evacuate ahead of Irma’s landfall, there is a brilliant and simple life hack going viral across social media. If your home is in the path of a hurricane this month, you’ll want to know if the power went out while you were gone. The way to find out is called the one cup tip.
Here what to do:
(ANTIMEDIA) — The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) has suffered from a shoddy reputation for quite some time, particularly after its failed response to Hurricane Katrina in 2005. As the Gulf coast recovers from Hurricane Harvey and Hurricane Irma approaches Florida, FEMA faces further failure as its funds near depletion.

(ANTIMEDIA) Houston, TX — Preparations and evacuations are currently taking place along the Gulf of Mexico as Hurricane Harvey — now a Category 3 storm — readies to slam into the Texas coast.
A tropical wave in the Caribbean appeared to be morphing into a tropical storm this week, with the potential to slam into Florida. The chance of it turning into a storm or a hurricane has largely subsided, but the year’s hurricane season has only just begun, and many Floridians fear such tropical weather could help spread the Zika virus.

When it comes to the impact of tropical weather on the spread of Zika, there are 2 main concerns: standing water, and high winds.
Why are you so worried about “debates.” They’re not debates. They’re beauty pageants. Mindless media diversions. Psychotic interludes. Charm school rejects and sleight of hand. Bought and paid for political hacks playing the ol’ switcheroo. Just look at the topics that seem to command so much of our collective attention. Look at what we find interesting, critical and what we ignore and reject altogether. Look at the attention that our media will pay to underinflated footballs and other pseudo-controversies; it is beyond my comprehension.
