And here's my report on #Hurricane #MELISSA in #Jamaica. Please note this is purely meteorological & it's quite technical—so casual readers focused on the human impact won't find it interesting. Meteorologists & weather nerds, on the other hand, will find this rare look deep

As a seasoned emergency manager who's overseen some of @FEMA's biggest response and recovery plans, I can assure you this is nonsense. Reducing the 75/25 cost share and assuming states not ending in -orida have the capacity to manage major public projects is naive and dangerous.
