The real problem is Cal Fire using Twitter to disseminate important data.
Post it on an official government website. Tweet a link to it. Don't try to use Twitter or any other service for hosting critical information.
Also, it's ironic that this complaint was posted on Reddit, which is now notorious for the login-wall depending on how you access the website.
They do post to an official government website. They also do outreach via Twitter and Facebook and it's very useful. It'd be a real shame if the Twitter outreach got less effective.
They post updates on their website but it’s very useful to have meteorologists, journalists and the public able to post alongside.
these public agencies don't know better.
