Indi has the best most up to date coverage.
The local TV and radio is at best out of date or non existant.
The reverse 911 (we have had 4 so far) are great, a really great idea. After the last one at 10.59 last night, I tried calling the 'fire info line' tel # given out by the County of SB, got a recorded message ! none of which was about the fire.
Went to the end of our road and spoke to the police who were really helpful and up to date with our local situation.
Tried getting info off SB News Press, but it seems they only want to give you news if you 'subscribe' - great community newspaper ! very useful. How come I can get 'free' and relatively up to date info off the BBC and most daily newspapers in the UK, - but not is SB ??
Thank goodness for the indi, you have a new reader !
