Flood Watch issued yesterday at 1:18 pm. WPC had mesoscale discussions throughout the event. NWS issues Flash Flood Warning at 1:14 am. NWS issues Flash Flood Emergency at 4:03 am. NWS was on the ball. The challenge is always getting the warning the last mile and getting people to respond.

You guys are doing it again. Yes, NOAA is important because of the National Weather Service, but that is not all they do and you should stop saying it is. I wrote this for the Union of Concerned Scientists. Read it and adjust your messaging accordingly. 🧪🦑🌎🐟 blog.ucs.org/science-blog...

Far too much of the media coverage supporting NOAA only mentions one of many things they do: here are 10 more.

Trump’s “Big Beautiful Bill” isn’t just about tax cuts it quietly guts federal protections and reshapes entire agencies. Here’s what’s buried inside:

Pretty wild to go from, ‘maybe I’ll buy a house this year,’ to, ‘I hope I still have this job in April so I can go to my dentist appointment.’ And it’s only been 7 weeks! abcnews.go.com/amp/Politics...

If there’s one takeaway from the American Revolution, it’s that this country is no place for radical pamphleteers.

Very true! And NOAA does way more than that. Harmful algal bloom forecasts to protect human health, Fisheries management so we have a sustainable source of seafood, coral reef conservation (reefs not only create massive tourism $$ but also protect shoreline from storms)...and many other services

I think about this when things happen like getting the ‘5 Bullet Points’ email from the sketchy hr12@opm.gov address that somehow goes to elno who bought his seat at the govt. Stunts like that push boundaries so they can see how much we’ll give up.

I really don’t understand how they walked past security like this. Security at NOAA doesn’t mess around, one time they wouldn’t let me in with a wet umbrella.
