US links $1.9 billion in state disaster funds to Israel boycott stance
The Trump administration said states and cities will not receive funding to prepare for natural disasters if they choose to boycott Israeli companies, according to an agency statement.
The Trump administration will deny emergency preparedness funds to cities and states boycotting Israel, which is heinous but unsurprising. The Trump admin literally wants its political enemies to die.
The American Jewish Committee supports the Trump adminβs policy. www.reuters.com/world/us/us-...

If you value hearing my local weather forecasts and severe weather coverage on Illinois Public Media (streaming online and over the airwaves!) in central Illinois, they need your support now more than ever.

OK on your iPhone (grey & white) you can turn on "emergency alerts" and it will send NWS alerts. Turn off public safety alerts to skip blue alerts (in TX). The beige one is Android alert options.

I worked at NOAA and FEMA. I've had long, exhaustive conversations in recent months with those inside at high levels. Staffing is depleted, resources are critically low, and morale is rock bottom. Our hurricane defenses are down, and it's only a matter of time before we take an uppercut to the chin.

Map pair titled "March 14-15 tornado outbreak: overlap of favorable conditions." First map shows accumulated convective precipitation, and the second map shows extremes in rotating updraft potential and instability. Both maps show tornado locations with red dots.
Tornado activity to date has been above average. How does La NiΓ±a make tornado-friendly weather more likely? Our guest blogger explains: www.climate.gov/news-feature...

Another one of the non-weather things that NOAA does. The National Geodetic Survey is actually the oldest part of NOAA.

we canβt just rely on a single medium or people loading NWS sites in the background. Big get off my lawn energy around all of this imo. The customer is always right and if theyβre willfully ignoring the gov, what else exists? Excited to get alerts only if I have paid twitter sub in the future π

the YT algo requires graphics like that or your engagement dies essentially. The entire goal is to get the info out. If the SPC uses colored graphs to indicate an outlook and they essentially just repurpose them, idk how thatβs clickbait. In an age where local mets are going away/NWS is at threat ..

if I wasnβt relocating out of state next month, given your comment, Iβd probably have the motivation to do so. This is why I think itβs bad: siren for tsvr, no threat. Line matures and goes tornadic (albeit to my north) and then siren for tor warn an hour later

Dunno where this is going but my local example wasnβt being covered on YT. Just as a weather enthusiast for over 30yr, Iβm not on board with sirens for non tornado sitch especially if the hail/wind threat is low. Thatβs how we get people ignoring sirens for when things are really bad.

Thatβs fair, I used to be quite turned off from this segment but in the last 24mo, have watched Max a lot and I donβt think Iβve ever seen outright criticism beyond βthis should be a PDS/should be tor warnedβ Tells viewers to heed NWS warnings, stay in shelter, watch local mets.

Well I hope that it comes to light and genpop gets to see those outcomes.
In this fight however, am really just focusing on Ryan & Max, as theyβre quite far from sensationalized IMO. Thereβs too many others that sour the pot unfortunately. The video graphics are just what YT algo feasts on.
