Neil Jacobs has been picked to run NOAA.

He's the guy responsible for the "Sharpiegate" mess.

Jurisdictions world wide have been violating their own scientific principles for years, nothing new here.

What assurances do we have that Jacobs won’t bend to political pressure again and violate NOAA’s principles on scientific integrity again?

First time he only damaged NOAA’s credibility. What could happen the next time?

NOAA Physical Sciences Laboratory (PSL) shutdown? It seems not reachable.

A bunch of NOAA was having maintenance yesterday. Somewhat surprised it’s not back.

I agree, the problem is, he's here to push his agenda aka propaganda. When will they learn? My guess never, in fact they have doubled down.

Most are here as enthusiast with a weather station, webcam, website etc. People are here to share experiences and help others out who have the same interest.  You're here for 0NE reason, to push your political agenda. Keep it off the forum. Plenty of places to go if that's what you want to do.

NOAA is being led by a man who violated NOAA scientific integrity policy due to political pressure. That's just a simple fact, not propaganda.

Does anyone have a list of sites that have been taken down and if so are there substitutes for those site?
