DO NOT TAKE SHELTER UNDER OVERPASSES. That is a bad and dangerous practice! #COWX

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. #SMEM @COEmergency @elonmusk @CommunityNotes
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.

False. This fire didn’t touch Denver or Boulder. A perfect example of why local news is important, & one we can use when someone tries to say all news is the same. It’s not. This is just lazy. Journalists on the ground in your community care about two things: you, & the facts.
"It's so awful." The Marshall Fire tore across Colorado from Denver to Boulder, scorching over 9.4 square miles and damaging nearly 1,000 structures. As of Monday, there are no fatalities and two missing persons.

I will say this 100,000,000 times… give animals space!! They are wild! You put not only yourself at risk but the animals. It’s ridiculous. You have zoom on your cameras. Use it. End rant. – at Castle Rock, CO
WATCH: Video shows a close call between a bull elk and a group of people who are way too close in Estes Park. @COParksWildlife says scenes like this are happening far too often. I'm tagging along with wildlife officers for a closer look tonight -- Story at 9PM on @KDVR

This video is an example of being too close to a bull moose and how quickly they can decide to charge on you. It is from Clear Creek County. The individual just by chance came upon the bull walking along a willow bottom heading towards a lake.

How can internet, TV, and radio be covered by the first amendment when they didn’t exist when the first amendment was written? Technology changes. Rights remain. bit.ly/CaetanovMassachusetts
How can high-capacity gun magazines be covered by the second amendment when they didn’t exist when the second amendment was written?

Replying to @joshuagates
@joshuagates Since we have been quarantined, have you given any thought to getting an #AmateurRadio license? You would probably have some fun doing DXpedtions en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DX-ped…
Watching preparation for @AstroBehnken KE5GGX & @Astro_Doug scheduled launch. Maybe we can get @NASA & @SpaceX to put #APRS on future missions? #AmateurRadio #LaunchAmerica
. #Hamradio operator Bob Behnken, KE5GGX, is one of the astronauts aboard the Space X launch this weekend! #AmateurRadio facebook.com/ARRL.org/photos…

Let's B perfectly clear #ColoradoSprings regardless of how U feel about the #2ndAmendment . If U shoot some 1 4 fun, because U don't like them, or disagree w/them, U aren't a tough guy & we don't respect U. U R just a punk ass bitch who doesn't deserve to be walking around free.
One victim has died after last night's drive-by shooting in Memorial Park. krdo.com/news/top-stories/20…
The International @Space_Station has several Amateur Radios on board and once in a while the astronauts use them to talk to people. #AmateurRadio #HamRadio #Satellites @arrl #STEM #NationalSpaceDay
Today is #NationalSpaceDay ! Did you know the first non-government satellite in space was an Amateur Radio satellite? OSCAR-1 was launched 12 Dec 1961. Ham radio operators today have a variety of satellites in orbit! #AmateurRadio #HamRadio #Satellites @arrl #STEM
Our comm infrastructure is still fine, but #AmateurRadio operators across the US & world are still stepping up to help people stay in contact & to disseminate & gather info. Remember: only give valid info from official sources, don't spread rumors. #Covid19 #HamR #DoingMyPartCO

Gr8 radio net today. Passed along info from @TCSOPIO & @EPCSheriff and about IRS website. Discussion incl that many store employees aren't wearing masks despite @GovofCO request. @Walmart and @kroger may want to address that. #AmateurRadio #COVID19Colorado #DoingMyPartCO @CDPHE

BTW, we have operators in our group who have been licensed since the 1950s.
