Best source for updates out of western North Carolina I've found yet.
Live updates: The latest on flooding and weather in Western North Carolina amid Hurricane Helene's assault on the Southeast.
I don't feel like the national media is conveying right now what a catastrophe is unfolding in western North Carolina.
What's unfolding in Western NC and E Tennessee is a disaster of monumental proportions--please keep the people there in your thoughts and help as you can. BUT ALSO: Project 2025 wants to dismantle NOAA (weather tracking/warnings), FEMA, and effective governance in general. Remember that as you vote
This is an unfolding catastrophe in North Carolina. Our infrastructure and systems are not built for climate change.
Reminder that the Waffle House index isn't a joke, it's a very real correlative metric and if you see a waffle house not just closed but BOARDED UP, then shit in that area is likely to be very very bad, and you should take it seriously.
Having lived in Louisiana, Illinois, and Massachusetts I have no idea what "normal" is supposed to be re: political corruption/indictments/convictions.
Alternatively, perhaps this case is evidence that the 'principles that underlie our entirely criminal justice system' *should* be called into question. That *does* sound like a serious question this case raises.
