HELP CANCEL MIAMI DADE SCHOOLS BECAUSE OF TROPICAL STORM


HELP CANCEL MIAMI DADE SCHOOLS BECAUSE OF TROPICAL STORM
The Issue
Danger comes as a new hurricane or tropical storm reaches the horizon. Broward gets to cancel their schools but we can’t? Isn’t that unfair? What if the area we live in is flooded. Or the lights went out. We still have to take our children to school. The weather is super bad yet we still have to go to school! This is super unfair! Our safety is not coming first! At least just for a few days! All we ask for is just your signature to make this possible! According to AccuWeathers report, “Even as Hurricane Helene was pressing toward the Florida coast, AccuWeather’s team of expert meteorologists had been monitoring part of the Gulf of Mexico for yet another round of tropical trouble. On Saturday afternoon, Tropical Storm Milton formed, just hours after becoming a tropical depression, and it was expected to intensify and strike the Florida Peninsula next week as a hurricane, with torrential rain, wind and the likelihood of flooding. As the tropical storms continues to churn over the warm Gulf waters later this weekend and early in the new week, it is expected to strengthen into a Category 2 hurricane (on the Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Wind Scale) before making landfall near Tampa Bay, Florida, on Wednesday morning. Milton is expected to be a major hurricane, a Category 3, at landfall.“ Can you believe it? A category 3 Hurricane. That is basically in the middle. We have today and Sunday to cancel schools Monday, Tuesday, and wensday.
