Hurricane Daniel

RUFUS - One day since the destructive Hurricane Daniel slowed and officially ended, crews across the State of Mesa have been hard at work to conduct damage assessments and have been busy removing debris from destroyed homes, properties, schools and have been at work attempting to drain flood-ridden sewer drains that have backed up from the amount of rain-water from the Hurricane.

"Our first areas of work will include Alden, Ashburn and Diester County. These areas were severely impacted by the storm and hurricane Daniel," said Governor Joshua Adamson. "Our state is working to drain over-flowed sewer drains that have been causing issues for the state's recovery efforts. We will create several new emergency plans for these areas."

The Governor and President McCallum have remained in constant contact since the storm made landfall on September 11, 2023, late into the evening. The two have put their feud aside and have been working closely with each other to coordinate resources, funding, and other required assistance programs designed to assist Mesa in recovering from the Hurricane.

Additional information can and will be published on the Governor's Office's official website. The Governor has made stops in Alden, Ashburn, Ashberry, Birch, Burton, and Diester counties as officials there work to aid in cleanup and damage assessments.

"It is absolutely devastating, the amount of damage, and loss of life that were inflicted upon Mesa, by Hurricane Daniel," said President McCallum. "We will continue to work with the State and Governor Adamson as he works to get his state back on track. We have 24-hour communication lines established so that Adamson and I can talk regularly. My goal is to get all Mesians off the street that were forced out of their destroyed homes before the storm hit."

RUFUS - According to a recent report issued by the Jesstopian Weather Service, Hurricane Daniel will hit Mesa a day earlier that expected, but they say the storm has slowed significantly. Governor Joshua Adamson has also updated where evacuations are required.

"We expect that most counties will be impacted, but we expect the impact to be 25% less, than previously estimated," said Governor Adamson. "The counties currently listed as Evacuation required areas should still be evacuating and I have ordered the Mesa Highway Patrol issued tickets to those who are able to evacuate, but don't. MHP troopers will assist those who need to evacuate until 11:59 PM on September 10, 2023. After that, residents who still have not evacuated are responsible for their own safety and MHP and emergency service personnel will not be available during the Hurricane."

The state is also prepared and evacuated over 2.5 Million people out of all six counties. The state has set up and purchased more hotel rooms for people who displaced by the store. He initiated emergency housing protocols, now as of April 21, 2020, allow the Governor to block hotels and motels from renting out available rooms until the housing crisis caused by the incoming Hurricane Daniel, so that those displaced have somewhere to stay, ends.

"We expect all people displaced the storm to have a hotel or motel room at their closest convenience. The state will also be providing payment for the rooms," said Governor Adamson. "Several of our incredible hotel chains are also providing free services in Eastern Counties of Mesa, for West Coast county, evacuees. The state is also providing free food trucks, as well as are directing residents of Alden, Ashburn, Ashberry, Birch, Burton, and Diester to utilize emergency services such as Free Meals, Free Housing and other opportunities."

The State is also opening up applications for home owners who are wishing to take stranded Eastern Mesians in. They can apply at bringin.jema.org/state/mesa/apply-to-be-host-family/.

RUFUS - Jesstopian President John McCallum has announced that he will give his first address to a packed House Of The People regarding his storm response to Hurricane Daniel. In his address, he will issue what he would like to have available to him in federal funding, how that money will be used and where that money will be allocated. Speaker of the House, Gretchen LeWolf will president over the meeting between House members and the President.

"In order to fully address the incoming storm, I'd like to lay out my spending plan for the storm response," said the President. "It is important that we have the emergency funding available for recovery efforts and to ensure that Mesa has what it needs to prepare for the storm."

The President will also send Vice President Travis Loretti to Mesa after the storm subsides to meet with local officials to address what funding will be needed to address the storm damage.

"President McCallum is working to procure emergency funding to be able to send to Mesa's Government so that they may prepare for the damage and devastation residents will face," said Vice President Travis Loretti. "I will go to Mesa after the storm passes to ensure adequate funding is available for Mesa officials to use to rebuild and restore the state."

The State of Mesa is bracing for the hurricane and as it does, it requested emergency funding of 5.6 Billion for recovery aid. The federal government is also preparing to send troops and Vice President Loretti to the site after the storm leaves and emergency recovery efforts can commence.

He will address the House on September 12, 2023, at noon. His address will be televised on most major channels. Tune in on major channels such as News 28, The Politics Channel, Jesstopian News Network.

ALBERTA - Hurricane Daniel has arrived in Derbia days after it left the Alberta province. Cambridge Prime Minister Fredrick Ricketts issued an evacuation order for Derbia for the cities of Ulster, Monarch, Royalty and Marcus.

"We have preparing for the last few days for the storm to hit Derbia and as such planned the evacuation of these cities," said Ricketts. "We expect the storm to stick around for the next 3-4 days and we are sending resources, as well as Jesstopian President John McCallum providing recovery teams of over 8,500 Jesstopian service members. For that we are grateful."

The storm arrived on the border of Derbia and the Wallard Mountains, and finally pushed east towards to Derbia's capital city, West Lake. It is expected to push North up to North Archman and that's when it will leave Cambridge and make its way to the East Coast of Mesa, where it will then quickly dissipate into a heavy down fall and then eventually end in clear skies by the end of September 20, 2023. North Lorray and New Shire are still prepared to be hit but weather experts are saying the storm will die out over Ashberry Mesa on September 20, 2023, the longest hurricane to hit the country. The last longest lasting was only one week long starting on June 1, 1894 and lasting until July 9, 1894.

"We expect that the storm will die out somewhere near the Great Angel River, in Ashberry Mesa, and that would happen on September 20, 2023," said Agnes Rivera, a meteorologist for News Oregon. "The storm is quickly losing speed and momentum, as storms do. However, as the storm dies, it will leave heavy rainfall in the areas for 12 hours up to 48 hours after the eye and its winds die off."

The storm has been ongoing since August 31, 2023. The storm has caused over 25 billion dollars in damage and it hasn't reached the coast of Mesa yet.

"Daniel is one of the longest moving and more powerful hurricanes than this side of the ocean has seen. The storm will begin to die out starting on September 18, 2023, and will officially lose all speed and rotation and just leave behind torrential downpours and mass flooding will be expected starting on September 20, 2023," says storm watcher David Beechum. "Storms are born, live and die just like humans due, so the lower pressures of the hurricane will bleed off leaving strong winds and heavy rains which eventually end. What makes this one interesting though is how long it has lasted, meaning it is very powerful. Most of the power comes from the Sea of Jesstinian which borders Jesstopia and Cambridge."

Jesstopian and Cambridge officials are preparing to revamp and strengthen their storm preparedness plans to ensure that no deaths happen during the next storm, more so hurricanes and tornadoes.

JESSTOPIAN NEWS NETWORK - What can Mesa, North Lorray and New Shire learn from the failings of Cambridge Government officials during it's time dealing with Hurricane Daniel, and what can Joshua Adamson, Linda Lee and Thomas Cooke do differently to prevent the failures from repeating themselves?

That's an answer not many people are able to ever answer, but experts close to our writers say they can answer those tough questions.

David Leerman, an analyst of Government responses to natural disasters including Hurricanes, Tornadoes, Tsunamis, and Blizzards, says that the failings of Cambridge, Prime Minister Ricketts, and his National Weather Service can be a very valuable learning tool for Adamson, Lee, and Cooke, who have yet to face off against the Hurricane Daniel.

Fredrick Ricketts wasn't given advanced warning of Hurricane Daniel's whereabouts as it slowly turned from a tropical storm to a category 3 Hurricane. However, Governor Joshua Adamson, Governor Linda Lee, and Governor Thomas Cooke have advanced notice about the storm and that will play a significiant role in their responses and actions when Daniel makes landfall.

ALDEN - As Joshua Adamson prepares to weather Hurricane Daniel next week, many Mesians are curious about how the very new Governor will handle his first major storm, and the work that he has already managed to do in such a short time. Many Republicans say that he will do just fine, as he continues to update the State and counties that will be hit hardest by Daniel.

"Joshua Adamson was prepared for the most important task of his Governorship, and that his leadership skills will come in necessarily helpful while he navigates Hurricane Daniel, and the death, destruction and heartbreak it will cause the state," said Mesa Senator Michelle Dragg. "He is ready for what will be thrown his way and he has the entire senate behind him."

Jesstopian House Speaker Gretchen LeWolf also praised his ability. LeWolf and Adamson have remained relatively friendly during the last few years.

"Governor Adamson will lead his state through the storm with poise and grace," said LeWolf. "He has proven himself time and again and I think this storm will highlight his worth and strength as a leader of one of the largest state's within the United States Of Jesstopia."

"Adamson is facing the largest hurtle a state governor could face, and I believe he will be successful in leading his state through the storm and resolve to a great outcome," said State Senator Micheal Davenport. "His leadership and decision making skills are some of the strongest I've seen in years, and yet Adamson is only 33 years old and still has a promising career ahead of him."

Many Nationalist Governor's including longtime enemy of Adamson's predecessor, Thomas Cooke said that his ability to leader will allow Mesa to come out victorious after Hurricane Daniel leaves the state and disappears into history.

NEWS 28 - Cambridge's capital is finally receiving some relief as Hurricane Daniel leaves the national capitol. But as the storm leaves Alberta, Derbia, and Bradford are still awaiting the Hurricane's arrival, but many Derbia residents are concerned that its strengthen will be greater as the storm has the time to pick up wind speed and force.

But even as the province prepares for its arrival and the extensive planning that has gone on for the last 3 days, the province is concerned that the high water levels and flooding resulting for the days-long rain showers.

Alberta is currently working to repair major Government buildings, facilities and offices to ensure that Cambridge's Government can get back on target and issue directives, funding and emergency supplies to Hurricane Daniel-impacted areas, and get Cambridge back to 100% before the end of the year.

Additional funding is being sent to the nation's capitol to repair major damages caused by Hurricane Daniel.

ALBERTA - Prime Minster Fredrick Ricketts has announced that Hurricane Daniel has finally left the capital province where it will begin it's slow journey to Derbia, the third largest province(population-wise).

"With the storm now leaving Alberta, we here at the Lecton Hall, can begin working on issuing directives, send funding to effected towns and villages in the outskirts of Alberta and prepare rescue operations for stranded Cambridgians," said PM Ricketts. "We still have so much work here in Alberta but we are also monitoring Daniel's progress towards the East towards Derbia. Emergency evacuations are continuing to be carried out by local officials there."

As the storm inches closer to Mesa's coast, Cambridge's government is preparing for the worst of the storm. Derbia, Canton, and Bradford are directly 30 miles of the eye of the storm, and will receive heavier damage as the coastal cities struggle to evacuate quick enough."

"It is sad to hear that Cambridge and Jesstopia are being or will be battered by the devastating impacts of Hurricane Daniel," said Polton King Georgie V. "The Kingdom Of Polton, its people and the Royal family send our sincerest and deepest regards to the people and leaders of both countries. Our Kingdom will commit resources to help in rebuilding Cambridge and Jesstopia, after the storms end."

More aid and resources are being requested by Cambridge, something President John McCallum has been trying to push through Congress, who has been reluctant to send any further funding to Cambridge. Cambridge officials are eagerly awaiting Jesstopia's aid, but some officials are slowly losing faith.

ALDEN - The state of Mesa is now under a state of emergency as Hurricane Daniel makes land fall in Western Cambridge. The hurricane reportedly has killed 2,500 people and is making its way to the east coast of Cambridge where the hurricane will then hit western Mesa. The counties of Alden, Ashburn, Ashberry, Birch, Burton, and Diester counties are all under evacuation orders from Governor Joshua Adamson.

"It is really important that folks from the counties of Alden, Ashburn, Ashberry, Birch, Burton, and Diester, evacuate and follow evacuation routes out of these counties," said Governor Adamson. "The hurricane is estimated to make first landfall in these areas around 2:30 AM on September 12, 2023. Winds of up to 200 Miles Per Hour. Damage is expected to be a little around 2.5 billion dollars and the Nationalist House is sending over 15,000 troops to our state's aid on top of the 25,000 national guardsmen and women prepared to aid in recovery and rescue trapped individuals."

The State of Mesa and Governor Adamson's office have set up special resources on their respective websites to aid those who will be unable to evacuate from the Hurricane. These resources can be accessed here.

The State also announced that over 25% of its land will be destroyed by Hurricane Daniel and will be the deadliest Hurricane to hit the West and Midwest.
