The energy company is texting New Orleans with texts with random rear end links in them that go to a photo on Flikr and a photo just host on a random website

Entergy: More than 20,000 line crews are pouring into southeast Louisiana to assist with power restoration. https://bit.ly/3ju8ZJZ
Entergy: Eight high powered transmission lines providing power to generation systems servicing New Orleans have been damaged. https://bit.ly/3kHn99V

I thought maybe the second link would lead to, like, a press release that said how long they thought it would take to repair. But nopes



Turns out the Flikr one is a video if you actually sit on the page long enough for it to load, but it's just of 2 Entergy trucks pulling out

few pictures from my parents. this is in southern LA, directly south of new orleans about 20 minutes.. if their house wasn't raised it'd be totally flooded, and they live on the high ground in Lafitte. in lower Lafitte even raised houses got flooded.

If we were actually going to do something like this, wouldn't it make more sense to take it from the Missouri River? It's further west and has several large reservoirs upstream

Climate change could significantly lower the number of skiable days across western North America, forcing some ski resorts to shut down entirely. The study, which uses historical data and model projections, forecasts that more than 90% of western resorts will have ski seasons shorter than 120 days by 2085 if countries don’t curb greenhouse gas emissions. Although many more severe risks could come from climate change, losing recreational skiing, snowboarding, and snowmobiling opportunities could cost the United States billions of dollars and tens of thousands of jobs per year, according to the nonprofit Protect Our Winters.
