Nemo me impune lacessit
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) has been notified by the Trump Administration to prepare to lose another 1,000 staff in the next month, in addition to the roughly 1,300 that resigned and were laid off in recent weeks, representing a 20% reduction in its nearly 13,000 workforce.
Managers at NOAA have been told to draw up proposals for layoffs and reorganization by Tuesday.

NOAA's bloated bureaucracy needs a reality check.
Look at the numbers: $6.9 billion budget, with $126 million wasted on "environmental justice" grants while core weather services struggle.
The solution?
Targeted 20% workforce reduction—2,300 positions—focusing on redundant roles, not essential forecasters.
Critics claim this threatens public safety.
Facts tell a different story.
Lead meteorologists stay.
Critical hurricane tracking continues.
Modern tech and AI fill efficiency gaps.
This isn't about cutting muscle—it's about eliminating waste.
Every removed position follows federal efficiency standards.
Every dollar saved goes back to NOAA's mission: protecting communities with accurate forecasts.
Bureaucratic bloat doesn't make storms more predictable. Smart reforms and focused resources do.
When lives depend on accurate weather data, there's no room for mission creep.
