Hackers from China breached the federal weather network recently, forcing cybersecurity teams to seal off data vital to disaster planning, aviation, shipping and scores of other crucial uses, officials said.
The intrusion occurred in late September but officials gave no indication that they had a problem until Oct. 20, according to three people familiar with the hack and the subsequent reaction by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration or NOAA, which includes the National Weather Service. Even then, NOAA did not say its systems were compromised.

Preppers’ PING!!
Why do we still trade with these people?
They’re inserting the polar vortex into our maps to scare us! Darn them!
Obama and clintons fault
I hope they don’t decide to make it snow tomorrow...
Are the Chinese mucking with our weather too? Because this arctic thingy we’re freezing through seems unnatural to the max.
They can hack the weather?
Ain’t it grand that we purchase all their garbage?
That’s not all they did. They also had spies on the ground accessing Dam information.

“Because this arctic thingy we’re freezing through seems unnatural to the max.”
It’s happened before, but now the weather people act like it’s a crisis and unusual. I’ve noticed that every thunderstorm is an emergency with lots of warnings.
The first polar vortex was described by weather scientists in the mid-1800’s.
Probably offshored work commissioned by Global Climate alarmists who needed more “global warming” temps recorded. They’ve been known to cook the books before...
There’s Sum Ting Wong with the weather.
The media is totally geared toward hyping any slightly out of norm weather event, with the hope that people will attribute it to climate change, and beg for government intervention of some type.
We have one decent weather guy in town, last night he said “yes it’s a cold spell but all these forecast temps are not near historical record numbers, it’s just a cold spell.
Yes, thanks, there is the science, but try explaining that to my CAT who won’t set paw outside in this weather. As far as he’s concerned, it’s all my fault, and I’m pointing to the Chinese, who, btw, eat cats.
I've noticed that too. What years ago would be a weather advisory is now an emergency. We get 'em all here where I live; thunderstorms, flash floods, blizzards, etc., you know, just normal weather, but to the Nat'l Weather Service they are all an emergency of some type as though it has never happened before.
Chinese - the cause of global warming by disrupting our weather systems.
