We have decided to re-open a new limited discussion forum for discussions related to off topic things and yes, political issues especially with regard to the latest NWS cuts. These discussions have been seeping into the weather side where we have repeatedly asked that it not be posted. We realize that the new NOAA and NWS cuts are related to this board and we have come to the conclusion that it should be discussed, just not weather side.
You may go here https://www.americanwx.com/bb/forum/38-limited-of-topic/ to discuss this. Only staff can create threads here, but all may reply. With this new forum created NO POLITICAL TALK WHATSOEVER will be allowed in any weather forums. You will be warned ONE TIME Moderators have been instructed to suspend after the warning and then ban after that. I will not help you. I will not bail you out if a moderator takes any action against you, so don't ask me.
