[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You want accurate weather forecasts to keep your kids alive, don’t vote for someone whose cost cutting includes gutting the National Weather Service…particularly if you have weak local governments like in Texas who don’t even have any early warning systems for floods, despite being located in an area prone to flooding….

Texas officials are questioning the actions of the National Weather Service leading up to Friday’s deadly floods, as fellow meteorologists defend the agency.

Some state and local officials say the NWS didn’t provide accurate forecasts ahead of Friday’s destructive flooding, months after President Donald Trump’s administration gutted the agency and experts warned forecasts could suffer.[/quote]
So, was this true, that the cuts contributed to the lack of warning,  or this some conjecture about it? Would  the service have been able to predict this flash flood?  Or is this how flash floods happen, generally?
I mean, if so, there needs to be some real accountability. Such a tragedy. [/quote]
