Today’s bloodbath at NWS reminds me of discussions over the years about the limits of predictability in weather forecasting. I would have never guessed that we’re gonna hit that limit in the US because of two insane rich guys.

All probationary federal employees at NOAA’s EMC that’s responsible for keeping all US weather model systems running have been fired with 1 hours notice. And that includes me and colleagues. We will not go quietly because we care about the NOAA mission to protect the public.

New: Layoffs underway of probationary employees at @noaa.gov Unclear so far how many were exempted for public safety reasons at the Nat'l Weather Service, NOAA Satellites and other units. www.axios.com/2025/02/27/l...

Layoffs hit federal climate, weather agency NOAA

The cuts could affect NOAA's weather forecasts, climate research and other functions.

From responding weather to earthquake to tsunami hazards, we are now much less prepared today than we were yesterday with these cuts.

What a tragic day for the meteorology and geosciences community, not just within the U.S., but globally. Caribbean meteorologists and disaster managers rely on data, forecasts and other products from the NWS/NOAA daily. www.axios.com/2025/02/27/l...

Potential Tropical Cyclone advisories began in 2017 (1st issued became Tropical Storm Bret that impacted T&T!) for disturbances that are not yet tropical cyclones BUT pose the threat of bringing tropical storm or hurricane conditions to land areas within 48 hours (and in 2025, within 72 hours).

In high confidence situations, Potential Tropical Cyclone advisories will now be issued up to 72 hours ahead of impacting land in 2025, compared to the current up to 48 hour lead time according to NHC Director Dr. Michael Brennan. #AMS2025 #EW4All

2024 was hottest year in NASA's record, stretching back to 1880, and past 10 years were warmest 10 years on record. Scientists have concluded that human activities, particularly release of heat-trapping greenhouse gases, are causing this long-term trend: news.climate.columbia.edu/2025/01/10/2...

Me: Opts to come to #AMS2025 because New Orleans shouldn’t be *that* cold compared to NYC. Narrator: New Orleans was (is) that cold.

The last time one of these were issued, it also combined with Spring Tides (which are currently ongoing), we saw: - Maracas Bay (the parking facility and North Coast Road) flood - Pigeon Point Jetty damaged - Coastal flooding in Mayaro
