Hundreds of weather forecasters and other federal National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration employees on probationary status were fired Thursday, lawmakers and weather experts said.
Federal workers who were not let go said the afternoon layoffs included meteorologists who do crucial local forecasts in National Weather Service offices across the country

Well, guess that means I just up my contributions to Ryan Hall Y’all.
HUNDREDS ON PROBATIONARY HIRING????? OMG...BIDEN FILLED THE GIVT UP AT THE LAST MInute,
All these hirings were part of Democrats’ plan to control the narrative of “climate change” along with ensuring Democrat seizure of power by growing a monstrous government awash in government perks while the general private sector population could afford to own little to nothing and wouldn’t have the political power to do anything about it.
To put it in the vernacular of the weather forecasters, turns out your job was a: maybe, perhaps, chance of.
Besides, you can always take up mining, or learning to code. I also hear that Billy Bob Thornton is hiring out in the oil fields
Real story,
I was at the Seattle Boat show ( owned a large sailboat at the time)
I stopped by the NOAA weather booth.
I asked is it true you have to be diagnosed as a Pathological liar to be a weather forecaster?
Dead silence, My wife slapped me.
In all my many years of sailing Puget Sound , Juan DeFuca, and Georgia straights area I never got a reliable weather forecast.
I bet they use the old magic 8 ball to predict the weather

Ryan Hall just sided with Deep State.
Billions of bucks on satellites, equipment, planes, offices, salaries, etc., and they can’t predict the next day’s weather accurately. How many times have I seen the radar conflict with what the so-called weather forecaster is predicting? How many weekends predicted to be sunny on Thursday, so you start making plans, then on Friday it all goes to hell. What a waste. We are still in a draught in Jersey. How many times did they predict rain, and it didn’t? Several.
So, what's the problem?
How so?
Thundersnow!...Coming soon to a theatre of the absurd near you.
See my reply #11.
Again, NOAA has over 11,000 employees. Firing 600 doesn’t do much. They should have kept 600 and fired 10,400.
Get rid of all the climate change cultists.
“I just up my contributions to Ryan Hall Y’all.”
I just Googled him, and he’s all butt hurt about the layoffs.
“turns out your job was a: maybe, perhaps, chance of.”
LOL! “Cloudy with a chance of meatballs.”
