Updates tagged with ms on Chirp!!lnxw48a1: S told me that #LA was getting some powerful storms. https://www.youtube.com/live/266v1fZwj1Y was live streaming the storm as it passed through LA and #MS. What I also found interesting is that the #NWS radar site in Slidell, #Louisiana, is moving to Hammond. https://youtu.be/gR_R2r214RE (I spent some time in both cities one year. More in Hammond, which also seemed to have more things to do.)

It could be any of: 1. Server / admin is located in Mississippi 2. Server and its admin is located anywhere but intentionally provides services to residents of Mississippi 3. Minor that views site is located in Mississippi 4. Minor that views site lives in Mississippi but is visiting outside the state 5. Sheriff doesn't like the site, so claims jurisdiction despite none of the above conditions being true. Also, they don't specify penalties, other than to say that the courts can decide to order payment of "court costs and reasonable attorney fees". I could have missed it, but I did read it twice a couple nights ago. Meant to punish online porn accessible to minors ... but it doesn't try to too hard define what is porn and what is art or educational.

I have worked in 15 US states and I have never found a place where tap water tastes good. I always have to buy a filter or just buy bottled water. The worst places were in #Mississippi (Jackson, Starkville #MS), #Louisiana (Baton Rouge #LA) and #California (Irwindale #CA). In Irwindale, the water came out looking like diluted milk ... and stayed that way several minutes later. It is an old rock quarrying town, so I suspect it was just rock debris suspended in the water. In Mississippi, the water came out yellow for a few days before getting clear again.

Ours is outdated, so needs work. But basically, if you’ll need to bring it in an emergency, you should know where it is and be able to grab it quickly. If you’ve got pets or children in your home, or if you’ve got someone with health issues, you should never wait until authorities give evacuation orders. Be ready to leave and to get beyond the danger area BEFORE the crowds try to flee. When #sonTwo and his wife were in #FL, they spent something like 12 hours one time getting from Miami / Ft Lauderdale to Tampa. Another time, they spent over a day getting out of FL into #GA, only to find that there were no places in southern GA with space available ... I think they wound up going to #MS to avoid the storm.
