Reports indicate that the Trump administration may attempt to slash billions from NOAAβs budget β including cutting research that forecasts natural disasters like wildfires & droughts.
The Commerce Department must reverse these plans! Read our letter with Senator Bennet & Senator Hickenlooper ππ½ππ½ππ½
The Trump admin aims to zero out funding for NOAAβs 16 cooperative institutes, which study everything from extreme weather to fisheries to toxic algae. I spent last week talking with folks about the losses β & potential threats β to society if these institutes close. www.eenews.net/articles/tru...

Image with text: "Funding for the Regional Climate Center program lapsed on April 17, 2025 due to a suspension of federal funding from NOAA through the Department of Commerce. It is unknown if or when funding will resume. All data and services offered under the HPRCC contract, including this website, are unavailable."
You may see messages like this on parts of our website, including the drought page. We rely heavily on maps & data from the High Plains Regional Climate Center, which no longer has funding. We'll do our best to point to alternative data sources, but many of these products are not easy to replicate.
