I love Interstates! It's where you can see the 'real America' happening. Cooperation, commerce, leisure, efficiencies. People going about their lives without friction.

Maybe this cold will motivate some of unhoused to leave the state!, cause it’s so cold .

It's truly heartbreaking for the homeless people living in tenths freezing to death in Hell, neglected and ignored their chilling conditions no help or support from the US social services to provide heartwarming to keep them in a temporary shelter.

They should have mentioned that when trees are professionally evaluated and pruned they are way less likely to fail. You can see the failure point in the Eucalyptus, that would have been called out by a professional Arborist.

There is alot of closed hotels motels and sky rises that they can open temporarily till the storm passes by but the city council doesn't care not in las angels ca just want to keep kicking the homeless out and take their stuff away especially if they have a rv or a tent to live in I would see this happen all the time when I lived in Cali I was born and raised in orange county ca
