It's hard to imagine this kind of situation will improve with continued depletion of staff across the public sector weather enterprise โน๏ธ
I totally get the frustration, but it always annoys me when it's on air like that. Like, what does that change in the moment? You have precious little air time, spend it warning people about the storms and impacts.
Have that other conversation offline with NWS, SPC, etc.
I'm watching the local news and seeing a TV met express, hit after hit, that they're incredibly frustrated there wasn't a severe thunderstorm watch issued for Central Kentucky, despite several hail-producing severe t-storms and warnings in their viewing area.

The motivation I needed ๐ช
I haven't been on social media much these days. It's been insanely difficult to process everything that's happening and all of the anger, sadness, and frustration that I've felt.
Trying my best to channel that energy into something positive (like baking baklava).
NOAA family, please share:
Linked is a crowdsourced document via r/fednews on Reddit with advice for terminated employees. Not perfect, but itโs at least something. Some kind of guidance in this horrible time.
