I wanted to get initially a briefing on what had happened with Hurricane Karen, became Tropical storm Karen, and then fortunately dissipated, so we dodged a bullet there. In the meantime, we're on tornado watch here in the Mid-Atlantic states because of severe weather patterns.  And we've got blizzards up north, we've got some weather patterns in the middle of the country that we're still monitoring.  And so I just want to say thank you to all of you for the incredible work that you're doing. I think it's important to understand that the people here at FEMA have been doing everything they can to respond to potential events. Here at FEMA, they're in touch with their state and local partners in case resources are needed. FEMA remains prepared for natural disasters year around, with supplies pre-positioned in distribution centers across the country.
But their job has been made more difficult. Thanks to the folks at FEMA, we were prepared for what might have happened down in Florida.暂无翻译,敬请谅解
