Subject: Pentagon Sends Hurricane Forecasters Scrambling After Suddenly Announcing Shutdown of Key Satellites



I don't know where to put this, but this seems bad. 

 

"The Department of Defense is abruptly shutting down a satellite program that meteorologists say is crucial to hurricane forecasting — just as what’s expected to be an “above-normal” Atlantic hurricane season is picking up.

These particular satellites, part of the Defense Meteorological Satellite Program, provide hurricane forecasters with real-time imagery and data. James Franklin, who served as the National Hurricane Center chief until 2017, said that information is especially important for monitoring storms at night."
