Was driving through town towards the River Arts district a few weeks ago and stumbled on this. Such an #asheville moment…

Mission Hospital in #Asheville has had another death, as reported via the #AVLWatchdog This system used to be excellent, until purchased by the for-profit HCA, after which they cut staffing and destroyed care. It's not the staff. It's the staffing. CMS has had them under "immediate jeopardy" 4 times since 2021. https://avlwatchdog.org/patient-on-psychiatric-hold-dies-by-suicide-in-mission-hospital-emergency-department/

We visited one of the other 2 High Five #Coffee locations here in #Asheville today. The Man spoke to a barista he recognized from the river location (and who recognized him as well.) The fellow said they're all getting shifts at the 2 remaining cafe's and that they will definitely rebuild. He also said the owner was thinking about bringing in a coffee truck there in the meantime, which we enthusiastically supported. The Man gave him a large tip, and told him we'd supported them via the GoFundMe, and we hoped they'd be ok in the meantime. So, hope for all, I guess. #Arson

Ok, I am now wondering who at the state level was compensated for approving Mission Hospital getting the extra beds 4 systems were applying for. HCA has been cited 4 times since they bought our non-profit hospital system for failing to keep patients safe, and THEY were awarded the 129 new beds? And this was in their CON: Increase capacity by 12% but staffing by less than 4%? Not enough that their initial purchase was incredibly fraught, but we're doing this now, as well? https://avlwatchdog.org/in-quest-for-more-beds-mission-plans-to-keep-staff-lean-con-application-shows/ #Asheville #NC

We went for a drive along the #BRP west of #Asheville today, and it was one of our best ever. While 72F and overcast at home (2160') by the time we got to our favorite Roy Taylor Overlook (5580') it was a gorgeous blue sky, quite windy and 60F. I thought we'd be seeing fully leafed-out trees, but at this elevation most of the trees had just barely begun, a good month-plus behind ours. It was like Second Spring, and absolutely beautiful. This is one of my favorite spots, and the tourists today just swooped through the parking area, and never got out to go look at the overlook. #Spring

The standard Fox News fare of BS and partisan slurs over reality apparently targeted #Asheville a week or so ago and I had missed it. They did manage to talk only to Republicans. https://www.foxnews.com/us/charming-mountain-escape-battling-homelessness-homeowners-say-turned-postcard-city-go-zone Today, the #AVLWatchdog had a pretty good rejoinder, including the fact that one of the Repubs they had interviewed is not only running for Governor, but also the head of Trump's FEMA, which should be providing funds for the area to recover after Helene: https://avlwatchdog.org/opinion-i-spent-an-afternoon-in-downtown-asheville-and-lived-to-tell-about-it/

RE: https://fediscience.org/@ZLabe/116482270276780250 This is something we're certainly seeing here in #Asheville, and we're nowhere near the regions seeing the biggest time shift. Soon we won't be able to remark on how unusual this all is.

Another check in on spring's arrival for plants blooming. Timing is way ahead of schedule, with off-the-charts early activity across parts of the central and western U.S. Quite a season! Map from: https://www.usanpn.org/data/maps/spring Future projections: https://doi.org/10.1007/s00382-016-3313-2

Apparently a damaged building on Lyman in the #Asheville River Arts District burned last night. It was a former paper recycling business and was abandoned even before Helene. https://wlos.com #Fire

New drought map today, and the worst areas are expanding, at least in this region. You lucky Texans... #Asheville #NCwx https://droughtmonitor.unl.edu/CurrentMap.aspx

Good morning, #Asheville Tuesday here starts at 35F which is almost unbelievable after all the early heat the region has had. No frost, probably because it's so incredibly dry. Warmer soon, but with luck not to the 90's again for a bit. Please send rain... #NCwx

A great video from the #AVLWatchdog on one of the deaths at Mission Hospital since HCA purchased the system in 2019. No one is blaming the nurses. This is all down to HCA and their abysmal cost-cutting, leaving untrained, and badly over-loaded staff caring for very sick patients. https://www.instagram.com/reel/DW2bJ0RCXj7/?igsh=MTZhNnd6bXM1a2Q4eA%3D%3D #Asheville #Hospital

You have GOT to be kidding me. Mission Hospital in #Asheville snagged the 95 extra beds the state was awarding to the area, even after countless failures of HCA to effectively run this system. We had 3 other systems vying for these beds, and at least 100 people at the community meeting when we got to talk about which group should be awarded the beds. This is the worst possible outcome. #HCA #MissionHospital https://avlwatchdog.org/despite-multiple-safety-sanctions-mission-hospital-receives-state-approval-to-add-95-more-beds-in-asheville/

#NoKings #asheville Will be very interested in what they say the count was for the protest today, it was big. Very proud to be a part of this, and get to record some of it.

#NoKings #Asheville There were SO MANY people here today, we're about in the middle of the crowd, as many behind us as in front. Marched a good long way through the city, and as we returned people were still just leaving the park. Everyone is simply fed up, and I want the whole world to see it.
