  8. Will states take on more FEMA duties? Congress, Trump council debate agency’s fate

    WASHINGTON — The Federal Emergency Management Agency could look significantly different by next year’s hurricane season, with state and local governments shouldering more of the responsibility for natural disaster response and recovery.

    Members of both political parties have long criticized FEMA, but a bipartisan bill moving along in Congress combined with President Donald Trump’s disdain for the agency may provide momentum for a big shift in emergency management.

    Trump has said […]

  10. “It’s like a doctor diagnosing a patient after a visual exam and checking their temperature.” (and the MRI was shut down for an unspecified ‘cybersecurity risk’)

    Just as peak hurricane season approaches, meteorologists are losing access to 3 key military satellites that help provide detailed information on threatening storms.

  11. Trump plans to unleash chaos during the hurricane season. FEMA has alredy been gutted, now his DoD admins order their oceanic satellite data secret banning access from NOAA and hurricane warnings.

  12. This is absolutely NUTS! What is wrong with these people??

    Trump administration's NOAA is terminating operations of the Defense Meteorological Satellite Program (DMSP) satellites that provide real-time data to hurricane researchers across the country, including National Hurricane Center forecasters. These satellites allow scientists to see through clouds and inside tropical storms and hurricanes, even in the dark.

  13. A favorite of mine, Windy.com -- which has had significant upgrades!

    "In 2021, two new #ICON forecast models were integrated - ICON-D2 with local coverage for central and west #Europe and ICON Global. Thousands of new air quality stations monitoring primary pollutants worldwide were added from our partners #OpenAQ and #PurpleAir to fight #AirInequality.

    "Several new layers were launched - Tidal currents featuring high-resolution data; the Sea currents dataset was updated; Thermals layer with soaring forecast for glider and paraglider pilots; Drought monitoring layers - Soil moisture, Moisture anomaly, and #Drought intensity, monitoring global drought.

    "We also expanded into the wear OS category and introduced Windy Apple Watch App. The 3D Globe mode was brought back for most layers (desktop only), including the Hurricane Tracker.

    "In 2022, we launched several new features and improved existing ones. In the beginning of the year, we added a new #radioactivity set of stations as a POI overlay and partnered with SaveEcoBot, run by a non-profit organisation SaveDnipro, and obtained a broad spectrum of environmental data sources in #Ukraine and offer them in an easy-to-access way to our users and other affected communities for free.
    New local models HRRR for the US and ACCESS model for Australia were added, along with a set of layers wet-bulb temperature, UV Index and Solar power.
    With release of iOS16, the Windy.com iOS app got LockScreen widgets, which can be placed on the phones's locked screen. A new significant iOS feature.

    "For the #HurricaneSeason, we launched redesigned and upgraded our Hurricane Tracker and added multimodel forecast & LIVE satellite visualization. Users in the US could also appreciate an improved radar resolution and coverage."

  16. Staff of #FEMA were left baffled on Monday after #DavidRichardson, the head of the US disaster agency since May, said during a briefing that he had not been aware the country has a #HurricaneSeason, acc/to 4 sources familiar w/the situation.

    The US #hurricane season officially began on Sunday & lasts through November. #NOAA forecast last week that this year's season is expected to bring as many as 10 #hurricanes.

  18. So, remember a couple of weeks ago when I posted about visiting the #AtlanticOcean in #Maine, and the water was very warm? I was *not* imagining it!

    #Atlantic #HurricaneSeason is almost here, and conditions are primed for 'rapid intensification'

    How many hurricanes will there be this year? Will this season be worse than 2024? AccuWeather meteorologists have the answers to these questions and more ahead of the official start of the Atlantic hurricane season on June 1.

    Published May 21, 2025

    "One of the biggest factors for tropical development in 2025 is the abundance of warm water available to fuel storms. 'The water temperatures across most of the Atlantic are above average for this time of the year,' AccuWeather Lead Hurricane Expert Alex DaSilva said. 'They're not quite as warm as what we saw last year and in 2023, but they're still well, well above average.'

    "Waters are expected to stay warm throughout most of the hurricane season, which will prime storms for explosive development. "
