Looking at the satellite, I just can't believe it's June.

Tropical Storm #Bret, Invest #93L, and another rigorous wave rolling off Africa.

This is an August/September type pattern, not June.

Just wild.

For now, thankfully nothing is threatening us, so keep calm!

COR3 Executive Director, Manuel Laboy Rivera to @LinseyDavis on Puerto Rico's power grid crisis: "I can tell you that we have the controls, we have the controls, we have the processes to ensure that the projects are done right and that are done in compliance."

[Matt Lanza @mattlanza]

Couple notes on Invest 98L. We continue to not have a ton of confidence on where it goes & what it looks like. A lot of questions, but a general WNW track with a turn to the N or NNE is expected. How that shakes out is TBD. Anyone from LA-FL should be watching very closely.

FEMA recently revised its regulations regarding the Public Assistance program after a presidentially declared disaster to update the monetary threshold when using "simplified procedures." https://t.co/0MJCo4DAmO

Our federal disaster declaration for Jackson water has been approved.

Grateful to @FEMA_Deanne for our long conversation about the crisis this evening, for she and Gracia and @femaregion4 team for their swift work, and the White House for ultimately granting the request.

@FEMA rep says of ~11K applications for individual assistance submitted to FEMA re #kentuckyflooding, 2,080 that were initially rejected have been changed to eligible upon appeal. That's an almost 19% error rate.

[Mayor Buddy Dyer @orlandomayor]

One year ago this week the American Rescue Plan Act was passed. Like my fellow @usmayors, I'm grateful for funding which has allowed @citybeautiful to launch initiatives like our RISE program that will connect residents to career opportunities.

@AndrewTheTaxMan @PslfCenter @PSLFcoalition Congratulations! Big deal!
