I want to first acknowledge our friends from South Alabama who are getting their lives, homes & businesses back in order following #HurricaneSally. We’re doing everything we can at the state level to help you get back on your feet just as quickly as possible. #TogetherAL 1/7
Today, with the support of Dr. Harris, I’m extending our #SaferatHome order for another 5 weeks. This includes extending our statewide mask requirement until Sunday, November 8. @ALPublicHealth #TogetherAL #alpolitics 2/7

Release: governor.alabama.gov/newsroom/2020/…
I look fwd to being able to lift the mask order as much as you do. The reason we’re extending this order until after the election on Nov. 3 is because it’s important to have a safe environment for poll workers & citizens to vote in-person. #TogetherAL #alpolitics 3/7

#HurricaneSally dumped an enormous amount of rain & lingered over the Alabama coast for far too long; as a result, many people are still cutting down trees, sorting through debris, & are still without power. #HurricaneSally #alpolitics Image
From meeting with our coastal leaders, I can assure the residents here that you’re in good hands. Many of the officials here have been through this before. I have no doubt they will use their experience to help you get back on your feet as quickly as possible. #HurricaneSally
I’d like to reiterate my appreciation to the first responders, lineman, @AlabamaNG, Marine Police, Troopers, local police & sheriff’s deputies and countless others for working around the clock to help your fellow neighbors. #alpolitics #HurricaneSally

We're here to provide a briefing on #HurricaneSally, to share what’s been done so far & to discuss what we’re currently doing to hopefully keep our citizens safe as this slow-moving storm makes landfall later tonight. #alwx #alpolitics @AlabamaEMA @NWS
@AlabamaEMA @NWS Yesterday, I talked w/ @RepByrne as well as the various mayors & county commission chairmen, & offered every assistance humanly possible. Luckily, our local partners are also experienced leaders in emergency management. We’ll be there standing shoulder-to-shoulder with them.
The @WhiteHouse & the Trump Administration have been great to our state. They’ve been in constant communication with my office, & we greatly appreciate their offer to assist where possible & for them keeping an eye on Alabama. @POTUS #alwx #alpolitics

For anyone getting ready to sandbag [from #Louisiana thru #Mississippi. I'm going to walk you thru...step by step, how to make your home or business as waterproof as possible.

#Sally #HurricaneSally #NOLA
Step 1
Start with heavy black plastic sheeting. What you lay down in landscaping? Its ok if you don't have that, cut garbage bags length wise and use those. Next....duct tape.

#Sally #HurricaneSally #NOLA
Once the plastic is cut to size [doors/garage] duck tape it about halfway up, leaving at least a ft or more laying on the ground.

This is moving way faster than anticipated.

Tropical Storm #Sally is now a Hurricane; Serious Threat of Storm Surge, Flooding Rain Headed For Gulf Coast

#HurricaneSally

Are there usually 5 named storms in the Atlantic at the same time? Asking for millions and millions of people. Image
I should have said "progressed quickly".

The wind speeds have increased, but the system has slowed from 8MPH to 6MPH and is supposed to slow further.
