It was worth the wait! Anyone close to me knows how much I put into this. Beyond excited for the fascinating results we found!

Grateful to return to GFDL and carry on essential NOAA climate modeling & research
I’m grateful to be part of this exciting and important collaboration! We linked new isotope data and NOAA GFDL Earth system model simulations to further constrain the timing of the CAS closure. Collaborative integration strengthens our evaluation and understanding of key climate impacts.
There is nothing more definitive as this.

Really appreciate your visualizations! Keep ‘em coming.
Devastating
Our rising seas. This is only going to get harder to ignore.

Wait, didn’t wiping out NOAA weather and climate research solve the problem or what am I missing.
While there’s a long list of things here that don’t sit right with me, the biggest is that I’m supposed to sit back take this and not voice an opinion.
That being said, at this point I can only muster WTF?
Obviously, this is my personal opinion and by no means reflects NOAA of coarse!
Trump administration officials are recommending the elimination of the scientific research division at the NOAA, according to internal documents and people with knowledge of the situation.
Justification for funding cuts 😳
“Cooperative Institute for Modeling the Earth System I: This cooperative agreement promotes exaggerated and implausible climate threats, contributing to a phenomenon known as “climate anxiety,” which has increased significantly among America’s youth.”

“While GFDL is most famous for its work on climate, the lab has also played a central role in weather forecasting…These models have so-called dynamical cores — the guts that determine how the model’s simulated atmosphere moves from one moment to the next — that were developed at GFDL.”
No words
I’m so sorry Zack. I still cannot wrap my head around this insane firing of our country’s top scientists.
This is a timely GAO analysis of issues facing the NOAA and AFRC Hurricane Hunters. While the recommendations and summary read bland, the report itself nicely details how we’re barely scraping by with current resources. Forecasts will suffer without new funding, let alone cuts to the program.
Nice piece by three heavyweights on the academia side of meteorology explaining NOAA’s critical importance.
Green line graph time series of average sea surface temperature anomalies for each February from 1900 through 2025. There is large interannual variability, but an overall long-term increasing trend. Anomalies are computed relative to a 1981-2010 baseline.
Last month observed the 2nd warmest (after 2024) global mean sea surface temperature on record for the month of February.
