20 years after Rita’s gridlock nightmare, is Houston ready to evacuate again? Stalled and overheated cars, endless gridlock and nearly 100 deaths. The deadly Hurricane Rita evacuation is still etched in the memories of many Houstonians 20 years later.

90 of 111 fatalities from Hurricane Rita happened due to the evacuation. 20 years later, would we do any better?

More NOAA Employees May Be Let Go, Making 20% of Staff Cut Together with recent firings and resignations, the new cuts could hamper the National Weather Service’s ability to produce lifesaving forecasts, scientists say.

#SAVENOAA ALERT: We understand that 16 of our colleagues have now had their terminations rescinded. We are thrilled for them, and we welcome this news! However, the vast majority of terminated NOAA employees have not been reinstated, and more cuts are imminent: www.nytimes.com/2025/03/08/c...

@noaa.gov provides lifesaving science, service and stewardship to the nation. #SaveNOAA is a group of terminated NOAA employees fighting for reinstatement to continue to deliver Americans these critical services.

An end of this saga for me (for now?), however there are still NOAA employees without their jobs back.

I am extremely grateful to have mine back.
