Seven years later, change "Wikipedia" to "AI" and it still applies.

Interesting - what is our responsibility as teachers: to protect kids from potential misinformation, or to teach them to protect themselves?

@NCWeatherhound @NWSGSP Here's what was said 10 hours before landfall: x.com/NWSGSP/status/… But what does that mean? What should people do with that? "Okay, I've got my laptop, TV, phone, and radio. I'm good." The alerts said "be prepared," but no one said how. Perhaps no one knew.

We plead with everyone that you take every single weather warning very seriously through the entirety of this event as impacts will be life-threatening and make sure to have multiple ways to receive the alerts.

@NCWeatherhound The World Equestrian Center was used as a major staging area for utility workers, but it was also almost entirely cut off by the storm. Forecasters can warn, and people can prepare, and yet still be overwhelmed.

@NCWeatherhound What preparations could individuals make? This is not a hurricane-prone area. There are no established evacuation routes, and I haven't heard that there were evacuation orders. The destruction was so far beyond anything previous, even the most serious warnings understated it.

@NWSWilmingtonNC @NCWeatherhound What's the strongest wind gust recorded in Asheville? Could this Helene set that record?

@Mr_Smiths_Class @beatmastermatt That IS freaking awesome, though! Also, ask me sometime what Project 2025 has to do with Admiral Zheng He.

@nckhui Huh. Could this be related to local pay incentives? Any sense whether this is statewide, or limited to Wake?

@ncstudents1st @nckhui "Some private schools are raising tuition" would suggest that NC is funding private school operators, not students.

@TechySewell @stephenoonoo Yeah, depending on how you count, I either got out 10 years ago (into a coaching role) or one year ago (into ed tech)

@TechySewell @stephenoonoo The problem, of course, is that teaching as a profession has become some poisoned that *everyone* is getting out, and there aren't the roles to support the number of people who want out. And I weep for the students we have left behind.
