Culver City is close to the Palisades fire, right? I hope you do not have to evacuate. Do you use a warning app like WatchDuty? https://www.watchduty.org/Here in Germany we have a similar app named Katwarn which works well.https://www.katwarn.de/en/-J. -------- Original message --------From: Russ Abbott <russ.abb...@gmail.com> Date: 1/8/25 8:53 PM (GMT+01:00) To: The Friday Morning Applied Complexity Coffee Group <friam@redfish.com> Subject: Re: [FRIAM] L.A. wildfires Thanks for your concern, Jochen. We live in Culver City, which is just south of Beverly Hills. Geographically, it seems to be somewhat protected from the winds. Our max wind hasn't been above 20mph--which still seems quite strong!When I got out of bed this morning, the sky was very smokey. I wore a Covid mask to walk the dogs--even though it wasn't particularly smokey at ground level. Most notable was that the light of day was pretty orange. Debora said it looked like the edge of cataclysm. Given the election that seems appropriate!Is anyone planning to go to IACAP this summer? It's at U of Twente, NL. Even though I'm retired, I'm about to teach a class on the state of AI. There is so much to talk about I'm thinking of submitting my syllabus to IACAP as a proposed paper. (I'm not optimistic they'll go for it.) It's due in a week. We'll see.All the best to everyone.-- RussOn Wed, Jan 8, 2025, 4:18 AM Jochen Fromm <j...@cas-group.net> wrote:I hope everybody is OK in L.A.? Especially Russ ?
