Just passing this along from my feeds:
"download the Watch Duty app to keep track of the fires. What's super helpful is the app tells you the magnitude of each fire (there are more than just the Palisades and Pasadena fires happening right now) with instant updates, info for shelters, free buses etc."
Watch Duty is considered an essential app here. Very well done. Good reminder to send a donation.
feeds: "Make sure to download Watch Duty for 20 horrifying notifications an hour."
Like all news, it's important to filter by the ones you actually want. That was part of what I meant when I said it's well done.
Once a fire is in your region but not threatening to you personally, you can mute it.
huh. It only does fires in western states plus Texas and Oklahoma. I was hoping it was all disasters.
George Conway:
"The combined area burned by this week's fires is larger than each of the city limits of San Francisco, Pittsburgh, Boston or Miami."
