re: Spokane wildfire disaster, and people wondering about how to maintain situational awareness of when this might happen, I have my wildlife safety protocol pinned here as a thread on my profile right here.
The situation in Spokane met all the criteria (namely, Red Flag Warning, and wind). Unfortunately, we've moved into an era where SOMEWHERE in the US has been in this situation all summer, particularly the Rockies; so you've got to keep an eye on conditions in your area.

Last week mayor pro tem Engler and I attended the National League of Cities summer conference in Louisville, KY, featuring seminars on public safety, energy and the environment, and maintaining civility in divisive times. Here I join city leaders from around the country on a tour of the Louisville Water Co., which has 100+ years of disaster recovery experience.
These conferences aren’t just educational; they also help connect us with tens of millions in grant funding. And by banding together, NLC member cities successfully lobby for federal legislation that protects our interests (for example, by shielding cities from liability for PFAS/PFOS “forever chemicals” dumped by others).
Many thanks to all at Louisville Metro for being such great hosts!

"Quantifiable risk belongs to the casino, the mortality table, and the actuarial ledger. It describes a world where the outcome of an event is unknown, but historical data exists to support a probability estimate. Because the boundaries of the system are fixed, we can use historical data to calculate numerical odds.
Knightian uncertainty, by contrast, considers the unprecedented. It arises when a situation, like climate change, is so novel or complex that history offers no guide. We are pushing the biosphere far outside its Holocene baseline, entering an environment where the variables themselves are changing, and the models used to project future outcomes break down."

Laws Every Scout Should Know
Being a Scout means more than camping, hiking, and earning merit badges. Scouts are also expected to be good citizens who understand the rules and laws that help keep our communities safe and fair. While Scouts are not expected to be lawyers, learning about important laws can help them become informed and responsible leaders. 1. The Scout Law and the Law of the Land The Scout Law teaches Scouts to be Trustworthy, Loyal, Helpful, Friendly, Courteous, Kind, Obedient, Cheerful, Thrifty, Brave, […]https://troop161ma.wordpress.com/2026/06/26/laws-every-scout-should-know/

FOD walked the field behind my neighbor's house. Her yard care people threw a lot (lot!) of fist-sized rocks off her yard into the field, quite hazardous for next year's brush clearance. They've been doing it with a tractor, and already there have been two (2) wildfires here due to brush clearance, tractor with a brush hog hitting rocks. (the #SandyFire and #LesserFire). #wildfires #disasterpreparedness

I'm running a Wilderness First Aid class (in person) in the Conejo Valley on November 2 (Sun) and November 23rd (Sun) 8am to 5pm both days if anyone local is interested. Cost is $75.00 (my cost for books and certification card, supplies). If you want to sign up, let me know, I have a few spots open. All the skills learned here are useful in everyday life, wilderness or not, and also during disasters. CPR certification is included. #FirstAid #WFA #WildernessFirstAid #ConejoValley #ThousandOaks #DisasterPreparedness #CPR #VenturaCounty
