I wrote this after the derecho in 2012.
Every day brings further affirmation that Facebook is, for events such as this, fine (albeit evil and terrible) for conversation. For disseminating timely information. twitter is infinitely better.
Now that we’ve all learned what a derecho is, this is as good a time as ever to remind you to follow RealCrozetVA on Twitter – I’m posting there much more often than I can here, in part because it’s much, much, much easier to post tweets from my phone than it is to write a blog post. I’m trying to post on the RealCrozetVA Facebook page, but that app is so remarkably slow and dysfunctional that it drains my iPhone’s battery super-fast. *and, I no longer have the FB app on my phone
So – follow RealCrozetVA on Twitter or simply keep refreshing that page if you’re not on the Twitter.
Twitter is also good for following CCAC meetings. Here are the tweets from the March 2020 CCAC meeting.
Be nice to each other.
