I sought comment from NOAA and the Department of Defense on this and received this reply today from NOAA's spokesperson. They suggest we use the surviving ATMS microwave that degrades significantly at the edges. You can see how much worse off we'd be with Erick last week if we only had ATMS.

A comparison of what we see from geostationary infrared imagery vs. what we get when passive microwave imagery like what SSMIS provides is available.

This is Hurricane Otis in 2023 as it was gearing up for extremely rapid intensification prior to impacting Acapulco as a category 5 storm.

This is the redirect notice you get now at the top of the page when you go to climate.gov. I wrote in this NOAA focused post a week or so ago that the primary fed gov't climate site looked to be on the chopping block - now it seems to have come to pass.

Florida is building a new migrant detention center nicknamed “Alligator Alcatraz,” converting an airfield deep in the Everglades into one of the Trump administration’s most ominous additions to its immigration crackdown. FDT!

The fact that NWS field offices are not able to operate 24/7 anymore in growing number of locations, & that offices servicing major population centers no longer have supervisory meteorologists in charge, & that radar techs are becoming unavailable, is highly alarming.

Earth Day 2025 We at the American Meteorological Society have never lost our sense of wonder, and we hope that everyone takes a few moments on Earth Day to feel the sun and wind on their face and to see the stars…

As Earth Day approaches, AMS President-Elect Alan Sealls suggests taking a moment--even in uncertain times--to appreciate wonder and the knowledge it gains us. "Air, land, and water are intertwined with each other and our lives."

NOAA contracts are being reviewed one by one. It's throwing the agency into chaos NOAA relies on hundreds of contracts to keep the agency running. The new commerce secretary is reviewing many of them individually, causing disruptions to many normal operations within the agency.

. @noaa.gov's vital work impacts virtually everyone across the country every single day.

Trump Administration Lifts Mining and Drilling Restrictions in Nevada and New Mexico The move, focused on Nevada and New Mexico, is aimed at removing “burdensome” restrictions on energy and mineral development, a statement said.

The assault on our public lands and waters continue. These efforts are unpopular, not vetted with locals, and not a long term pathway for economic prosperity in the communities they impact.
