While driving home in #Coloradosprings 2nite I saw several groups of people trying to sled in the middle of city streets. In the dark. In poorly lit areas. Wearing dark, non-reflective clothes.
People are idiots. #cowx @CSPDPIO #DarwinAwards

DO NOT TAKE SHELTER UNDER OVERPASSES. That is a bad and dangerous practice!
#COWX
Please don't do this! News media, please spread the word that is not a good idea!

For those who don't understand the difference between US Space Command @usspacecom and US Space Force @SpaceForceDoD maybe this graphic will help.
PS: There is no organization called "Space Force Command"

Let's remember, especially you storm chasers, that taking or posting videos or pictures of Colorado weather using your phone while driving isn't just illegal, it is also incredibly stupid.

Quick refresher: Not only is taking and posting videos and pictures with your phone illegal, it is also incredibly stupid, even more so during bad weather.

"Gee, this weather that I am driving in is really nuts and dangerous. I better pull out my cell phone and take pics and vids and post them on social media while I am driving so people know how dangerous it is out here."

If you are messing around with your phone or a camera to take pictures or videos while you are driving, you are doing it wrong.
Just saying.

This is a serious concern. If in doubt, go to an agency's website & find the link to their Twitter account to ensure you are following the correct one. Start following the official accounts right now, don't wait for an emergency.

After recent changes to how Twitter verifies accounts, public safety officials are expressing concern about the spread of misinformation. krdo.com/news/ap-national-ne…

Also @elonmusk there is even a term for some of what we use platforms like Twitter for: Social Media Emergency Management #SMEM . During emergencies and disasters, social media platforms are incredibly important to how correct and timely information is gathered and shared.
. @elonmusk Pls be aware, platforms like Twitter are very valuable tools for local news media & reporters, local governments, emergency services like law enforcement & fire depts, emergency mgmt, fedrl orgs like the NWS, & for VOADs like Red Cross, Salvation Army, & ARES.

Thanks @elonmusk the @Twitter @premiumbusiness symbol is now completely meaningless. Bad move. Symbol was very important during disasters & emergencies for determining valid information vs misinfo/disinfo. Urge you to think. @TwitterSupport @yoyoel
