Understanding "evacuation order" vs. "evacuation warning" is crucial. An evacuation warning means potential danger to life/property, while an evacuation order means immediate threat to life, requiring immediate departure under law enforcement directive. Know the difference.

"We'ed" like to be blunt – driving high is illegal. If you’re partaking on #420Day, pass your keys to a sober friend or call a rideshare or taxi to get home safely. #ImpairedDriving
