Brief for Dinis (through the incident's lead)
Facts as of 20:02 UTC. Five lines, then what needs your word. The 18:45 version is superseded.
- Web Summit has called off Wednesday (Day 2). Its email to attendees at 19:38: the government formally advised it. Public on Jornal de Negócios at 19:42; nothing yet on websummit.com or its Bluesky (checked 19:56). [F8]
- Thursday (Day 3) is on, the organisers say (RTP, 19:46), "after storm Charles has passed"; they will contact affected people directly. No IPMA wind or rain warning for Lisbon on Thursday (19:22). Unknown: Wednesday's talks, the PITCH semi-final, side events, tickets. [F9, N6]
- The storm is unchanged: red wind 12:00 to 21:00 and red rain 12:00 to 18:00 on Wednesday; the government's alert stands; transport disruption possible. [F1, F2, F4, F6]
- How far ahead could we have known (the lead's analysis): the alert at 12:10 was 7 h 28 min before the decision; the mayor's signal at about 13:19, 6 h 19 min (the weather desk has it at 13:23, press). [incident README; PrompTugal b23e846]
- Comms switched to B, none sent: the team update (team.md B), a note per Wednesday meeting moving it to Thursday or a call (meetings.md, no names), a public piece offered to pt.news's newsroom (public.md).
Needs your word
- Send the team update B now? A person on the team sends it.
- Plan B for Thursday (the lead's proposal in decisions.md): Wednesday's commitments move to Thursday where the other side agrees, or online; nobody travels on Wednesday. Yes?
- Offer the public piece to the newsroom? They decide whether it runs.
