Friday Roundup: Flood and Storm Waters Causing Extreme Danger Included in Headlines

Posted by HCN on Friday, September 20, 2013

Colorado


The flooding and storm waters that hit the Boulder, Colorado area, especially the town of Lyons, stealthily grew in severity to immense levels.  The infrastructure of the region, was just not prepared to handle a storm and flooding of the strength that occurred within the past few weeks.
Property is destroyed.  People are missing.  Rescue efforts are underway.  The catastrophe is grueling and harsh, to the extent that it makes it very tough for the amounts of cleanup, rescue, and rebuilding, to be at the point yet that an accurate assessment of the damage and toll of lives can be made.

Usually when people are missing, they have about 3 or 4 days to live depending on the person, if they do not have access to food and drink.

Key words for locations:
  • Drake in Larimer County
  • Lyons

Syria

Insofar the concern of unnecessary loss of life, remember that analysts feel that weapons getting into the wrong hands ensuing support for the 'Mujahideen' of Afghanistan that fought to maintain independence from Russia in the early 80's, was some of the fault for the development of terrorist cells we contend with today.  Refined attention to details of policies about any matter, always helps.

Refer Burma/Myanmar page for air strikes over the EOM February/2026 start of March 2026 time frame. Up for consideration is the be mindful of the whole pie concept. There may very well be a double team set of missile strikes going on on Iran, subject to differing views; however there are still a number of situations going on globally that are weighted, such as violence in different areas of where the Sahel and Northern Africa meet, situations of starvation in the eastern areas of the belt as well; and missile strikes in other regions.
