This will literally bankrupt the U.S. If you ever wondered why NOAA/NWS is in the department of commerce, I have some news for you. Every single $ of our economy is impacted by the weather. Agriculture, Energy, Travel, Logistics, Defense, logistics of every major company, etc I

This is horrible news for numerical weather prediction in this country. The data that comes from these key parts of our weather enterprise saves lives. DOGE moves to cancel NOAA leases on key weather buildings axios.com/2025/03/03/dog…

Weather warnings: issued by NOAA Radar: maintained by NOAA Ground truth: observed by NOAA Hi-resolution models: produced by NOAA Without NOAA, it would be much harder to predict and detect storms in advance, making you more vulnerable to severe weather.

Need to sound the alarm on this one. As I understand it, this is from the "President's Budget Request", which often isn't really used that heavily by Congress (who actually controls funding). But this would essentially end all research and development within NOAA and NASA if

This is not hyperbole; if this budget comes to fruition (has to be approved by Congress) it would lead to a complete cessation of all weather and climate research. The damage to our field would be permanent and will cost BILLIONS of dollars and many lives science.org/content/articl…

It's hard to overstate how catastrophic this would be for hurricane forecasts. Should Congress approve the move, it would undo 50 years of hurricane forecast improvement. The folks taking a broad ax to climate are hacking away decades of progress to life-saving weather forecasts.

The total loss of NOAA’s office of Oceanic and Atmospheric Research — a nerve center of global climate science, data collection and modeling — represents a setback for climate preparedness that experts warn the nation may never recover from. propublica.org/article/trump-…

ICYMI: House Republicans are refusing to engage in debate over their bill that would cut funding for our National Marine Sanctuaries & National Parks, sell off our public lands and waters to Big Oil, and make mining and drilling permits a pay-to-play system.

🚨 #wxtwitter Alert 🚨 NOAA’s Atlantic hurricane season predictions are out! But your forecasts are at risk! Staff cuts, censorship, and proposed budget cuts at NOAA will make it harder to prepare for and stay informed this hurricane season. noaa.gov/news-release/n…
