LOL - I don't need the NWS to tell me when a storm is coming, I can look in the sky.
NWS Layoffs Happening Now
- Thread starter McLovin32
- Start date
Insurers need that data to assess areas that major hailstorms actually hit.
You do realize the remaining NWS employees will still be working? What facts do you have to back up your claims that weather forecasting will cease to exist?
The FSU phd, Andy Hazelton, who is mentioned on page 1 of this thread was working on two new hurricane forecast models, HAFS-A and HAFS-B. Many of his twitter posts were regarding the results of the models and the constant updates they applied after each storm. Now we will have much less, if any, of that.
So? Work that was being done will now not get done, because a bunch of them are not.
How about you get on the coaching staff at Iowa FB, and convince them to "fire" half the starters and play on the field w/ only 6 men.
You think you're gonna win any games against teams fielding a full complement of 11?
Apples vs Oranges. Is the NWS losing 50% of its workforce as you just insinuated?
When the wheels start falling off, with people completely blind to storms that overwhelm them, the fascist republicans will use it as an excuse to lay off the remaining employees. "Starve it until it breaks and then kill it" is their tactic for anything that is publicly provided by the government.
Some of the divisions likely are.
How successful would your Iowa team be playing "just one player down" for every play on the field?
Try playing a FB game one player short on every down.
Doesn't take a rocket scientist to understand how that's gonna turn out for you.
The NWS has people on vacation, calling in sick, and on maternity leave every day of the week which means they run short on a daily basis but still seem to function.
You're such a Chicken Little.
And they STILL DO
Only NOW they have hundreds of others who were eliminated from their positions.
That point seems entirely lost on you here.
Not lost at all, in fact I went on the NWS website earlier today and everything is working as normal.
What sez you Chicken Little?
So you're telling me there's not trillions of dollars of waste and fraud and unneeded employees in the government?
AI cannot provide you more accurate weather predictions without "data".
They've fired the people that collect and enter in the data.
