Yeah it'll be interesting if they privatize weather forecasting in the US. I'll be looking for European forecasts of US weather... It's handy info, but I'm not gonna subscribe to see if I need a coat or umbrella.
There is no way private weather forecasting will be profitable enough to keep the required equipment running, at least at the quality we have had.

#42Interesting article. We are past the usual -20 or lower six weeks where I am so feels like a typical year. If I choose a random northern place like Rankin Inlet NU it is still cold up there with a low of -33 tonight. It is a sign of the times when I think huh, climate.gov… is that a reputable source?

Why would "they" privatize the weather? How dramatic.

#50I’m amazed that climate.gov hasn’t been taken down yet.
Seems like the DOGE cuts were overhyped after all. Honestly, anything connected to Trump is overhyped. He has a protective aura of noise. You're not going to figure out what's going on by just reading headlines.
What is overhyped is the actual “savings” that they are producing with all of this.
