Why Are My Weather Posts Missing From Facebook.

Hello everyone. I just wanted to let you know that my Facebook page was shut down without any warning by Facebook this past Saturday, June 8th. All I was told was that I had violated their community standards. I don't know what triggered that; they didn't tell me. I was told this may be permanent or for six months.
My guess is that it may be because I posted several comments and articles from my Substack page about the riots in LA, and that must have triggered/angered someone, and they complained, thus Facebook shut me down. I don't know this as fact, though. I have appealed this decision, and I'm still waiting for their reply. I have read on X that this has happened to other Facebook users posting about the LA riots as well.
I always share my weather blog posts (that I post here) on my Facebook page and my X page. This included over twelve different New Mexico and West Texas Facebook Community sites. So there are thousands of you out there (based on my views and shares of those posts) who will no longer see those posts. My Facebook page may or may not be restored.
This is another good reason (as the National Weather Service often reminds us) to have multiple ways of receiving severe weather alerts when severe weather threatens your location. My weather web page is one of those ways, and I really appreciate all of you who have and still do use it. Thank you so much!!!
If my Facebook page is restored, I will continue to share my weather blog posts and some of the NWS Watches and Warnings...as I have been doing for years now.

Dangerous High Wind -Blowing Dust Event Underway.
Dangerous Fire Wx Conditions Today!

Blog updated at 2:13 PM MST.

High Wind Warnings cover most of SE NM and W TX early this morning, except for Chaves County which is under a Wind Advisory. West-northwest winds are forecast to howl at sustained speeds of around 35-45 mph with gusts to near or over 60 mph across the lower elevations of SE NM today. These winds are forecast to gust up over 70-80 mph in the mountains. The strongest winds may occur between sunrise and around noontime when the Pacific cold front sweeps eastward across the area.

Critically Dangerous Fire Weather Conditions will exists across all of the area today. Any wildfire that should break out will have the potential to rapidly spread and grow in the high winds. Please refrain from any type of outdoor activity that involves the use of sparks or flame.

A Blowing Dust Advisory remains in effect for Lea County until 3 PM MST. Blowing dust will reduce the visibility down to less than 3 miles in some areas, when a few areas possibly experiencing visibility drops down to less than one mile in the stronger wind gusts. This will be especially true over and near freshly plowed or exposed farmland, fields, lots, and construction sites, as well as other normally dust prone areas.

Travel on local roadways could be impacted today due to the high winds and blowing dust! Some local road closures may be possible.
