I almost blackout every time I think about how ~every single state~ needs to be hiring ~hundreds~ of more people to work on emergency management (and some states need to hire thousands) to even begin to compensate for what it would be like to manage a major disaster without FEMA.

Very quiet stretch we're in. 6 years yielding only 3" of snow. By far the least snowy such stretch (next lowest is 14.1" over 6-years)

Many states have fewer than a dozen full-time emergency management employees. Think about that for just a moment - a dozen people expected to handle a massive flood, terrorist attack, or tornado outbreak. With no federal support. No backup. No cavalry. This stupidity will get Americans killed.
