What about the negative impact of crying wolf- should the "event" not be so eventful. Criticizing what appears to be an irrational decision by leaders who are known for over reacting to everything isn't adding inches to your dick. Its legitimately questioning the rationale of the people who are supposed to make informed, rational decisions. Not Chicken Little (and chicken shite) emotional decisions based on fear.





What should the threshold be? How much predicted rain is too much? How high of a tornado possibility is too high?

Closing schools a few weeks ago with the tornado threat was wise considering a daycare facility in the Gonzales area was hit I believe.

Given the information they get from their weather teams, I don't think some of these decisions are so awful. You can't criticize them in hindsight all the time.

dont believe I am. Per WBRZ last night the BR area was forecast to get 4"-5" of rain through Saturday. 4"-5"!! We get as much with regular thunderstorms. I appreciate that leadership requires making tough decisions. It also requires that the leaders have the trust of those being led. I don't think the leaders are doing anything with this decision to garner that trust or confidence.
