Every time someone mentions climate change (which is not new) they should also mention urban footprint. Flooding occurs more easily when there is nowhere for water to go. We keep bldg more and more not leaving natural areas.

Bushwick, Brooklyn, tonight. Ida brings historic flooding to New York and New Jersey.

[Teresa Hill @teresahillbooks]

@otislulumom @cmhrose One storm. A single storm destroying and flooding property from the Louisiana coast to New Jersey, while the west is on fire.

This is climate change.

Can we take it seriously now?

[Ray Petelin @RayPetelinWx]

I cannot believe what I am seeing with this New York and New Jersey flooding. Cars in the Bronx are up to their rooftops with water. All time rain records are being set.

Peoria Grade school closed for 2 weeks due to Covid outbreak. St. Jude Catholic school is handing out computers/ending all extracurriculars & practices until the projected return Sept 13.

JUST IN: Mayor Lori Lightfoot says "city employees are absolutely going to have to be vaccinated" against COVID-19. Negotiations are ongoing.
"We have to have a vaccine mandate," Lightfoot says, adding that an announcement is coming in "days." @wttw

[Heather Cherone @HeatherCherone]

The city's coronavirus test positivity is 4.7% per @ChiPublicHealth. 7 days ago, it was 3.9%

On average, during the past week:
➡️There are 473 COVID-19 cases per day in Chicago, up 25%
➡️The # of tests rose 3%
➡️28 people were hospitalized with COVID-19, up 6%
➡️Deaths rose 11%

@GovPritzker and @ISBEnews D214 needs a remote learning option especially for households with high risk family members or siblings too young to be vaccinated. We shouldn't have minigations in place at a lower level than they were in 2020-21 #ILCOVIDisnotover @ilraiseyourhand

[Hillary Clinton @HillaryClinton]

This is nuts.

[Jay Nordlinger @jaynordlinger]

Trust me, my friends: If a Democratic president did this, all of us conservatives would explode in rage -- this usurpation, this defilement of the people's house -- and we'd be right.

The mask goes over your nose.

@wagnernancy thank you for your difficult decision prioritizing our students’ and staff’s health and safety. This mom appreciates it!

[Governor JB Pritzker @GovPritzker]

The enemy is not your mask.

If you’re not wearing a mask in public, you’re endangering everyone around you, so the enemy is you.

I'm heading home now. I'm unscathed but I will be filing a complaint with COPA. I was doing my job, trying to comply with guidance from white shirt officers and identify myself as press. I'm not the story here, but I was kept from telling stories tonight.
