    I absolutely am not at all impressed with the Governor and the way he is trying his best to skirt blame for being unprepared. His excuse is disgusting

      I am not picking on your comment in particular but what do you want these people to do? We live in a microwave instant fix society and people want to place blame on someone for an act of God! Local news and weather were warning of the potential for major flooding days in advance and its a tragedy that people lost their lives ! Blaming people in the midst of devastation the likes that our communities have never seen isn’t the right response and divides us at a time we should come together!

    "you don't call an emergency until you know there is one there ..."
    No, no .... that's not how it works. As someone who grew up on the gulf coast, you call an emergency if there's a 1% chance that an emergency might happen. You call an emergency the second you suspect you might need one. You do not wait. The longer you wait, the longer your people are going to suffer. It doesn't hurt anyone to call an emergency and not need it. But if you don't call one and then nobody has it and needs those resources? Logic much? I can't wait to not vote for him over this.

      @@christinerussell1132 yet somehow North Carolina had the foresight and hurricane damage in Asheville is unheard of as well... Not to mention the Mr Lee somehow didn't know that there was a Hispanic speaking population in the place where he was going to give a speech? At best, his staff is incompetent and at worst he just didn't care. Either way, it's not easily forgettable as both show incompetence or unpreparedness from either him or his staff and I'm not okay with either. I knew nothing about this man before I moved here and what I have learned has not exactly impressed me much. I've seen something like this break. A governor firsthand multiple times. He's lucky Tennessee didn't get hit in a more populated area... Who knows, he might get away with it, time will tell.

    I just hope the citizens are getting the help they need. My worry is they are not considering Lee's first go to is who he's with (elected officials) along with bridges. Humans first. I'm thinking about y'all and am worried about you. Just for note, Lee didn't put the presidential disaster declaration in until yesterday. NC did it much sooner which is why things are moving faster.

    Could not Imagine such a storm? How many times have scientists said the storms would be very bad, The climate is changing Bill Lee needs an imagination and some common sense. HVAC guys and farmers know this and are trying to adapt .You need bigger heat pumps, droughts and too much rain are increasing problems. But it is all a surprise for Bill Lee, he doesn't even know that businesses are employing a large number of non english speakers.

    Ask questions like...
    Are central sites stocked with bottled water and non-perishable food. Are aerial drops being done regularly to all remote locations? Are water/food distribution centers full?
    How is fuel being disseminated to remote sites for those using generators.
    Update on roads being opened. They need cleared to get lineman in.
