Everything Looks Fine to Me

A reader pointed out that the Commonwealth's Web response time for emergencies is not all that impressive. Virginia.gov took about 4 hours to post anything at all about the statewide weather emergency, and all of it - consisting only of press release links - are below the fold on most screens (see screen capture).


VDEM was a little quicker, but still pretty threadbare when it comes to details. Using the Virginia.gov Live Help results in information ranging to what was obviously just someone looking out their window, to a suggestion to visit VDEM.
