#NOAA / #NWS is blitzing me with severe #t-storm warnings for much of eastern #KS and western #MO, including the KC metro, Atchison, St Joseph, Marysville. There was also a tornado watch issued earlier.

@hattiecat I'm currently in #PR (Puerto Rico), but I've got a son and grandkids in KC.

@hattiecat I've only been in the San Juan metro and Caguas (and spending about 70 hours per week between the workplace and commuting), so any answer I give is incomplete.

Last I saw, around 95% of the island had power available, but even in the capital, there are many traffic lights not working. The roads are lacking years of maintenance, high-level officials are embroiled in corruption scandals, and both the government and power company are bankrupt. They've had 11 years of recession.Expect full recovery in 10-20 years at best.

@hattiecat I hadn't heard much about the situation in #PR before hurricanes Irma and Maria. I knew residents pay no federal income tax, and right before Irma, I learned that bankruptcy was imminent. But now that I know they're in a (so far) 11 years long recession.
