Yeah, I’m not saying that that particular storm is going to happen, but the models have been pretty clear about something along the East Coast and even something in the golf in the extended. No need to react at this point.

incorrectly declared "state of the art"

We're now on day two of, "It's obsolete, trust me bro."

It's a fully functional satellite that continues to deliver quality measurement data at microscopic funding levels.

Literally the only reason it's being slated for termination is the political targeting of earth science.

Assume much? All of NASA's budget requests are public information and posted on their website. If the author had done due diligence they could have written that the program was in the standard biennial review by NASA senior review panel and the most recent extension encompassed FY25 and FY26 in addition. That way if the program is canceled in FY26, the questions can be asked and blame appropriately blamed.

It would have made the article 41 paragraphs.

You don’t have this much Phase F talk this early in the review period unless it was going to be Phase F’d.

NASA’s acting chief calls for the end of Earth science at the space agency

Yes, it's purely political. Arguing that NASA doesn't have a role to play in supporting research in Earth science is 100% politically, not scientifically, motivated.

Not sure what point you think you making but here is the summary from the study you linked. This is how science works.

Plain Language Summary

Over the last 20 years, the decline of Arctic sea ice has slowed down substantially. Climate models (from CMIP5 and CMIP6) show that pauses in sea ice loss across multiple decades can happen, even as greenhouse gas emissions continue to rise. When we compare the current slowdown to similar pauses in model simulations, we see that it could plausibly continue for another five to 10 years, although the same slowdown makes a faster-than-average sea ice decline more likely in the coming years. Most of the evidence from these climate models suggests that natural climate variations have played a large part in slowing the human-driven loss of sea ice. However, it is not entirely certain whether changes in the human influence on climate (the "forced response”) have also contributed. Overall, while it may sound surprising that Arctic sea ice loss has slowed down even as global temperatures hit record highs, the climate modeling evidence suggests we should expect periods like this to occur somewhat frequently.

that must be why more and more ships are able to use the Arctic Sea Passage every year, many now without icebreakers.

Not at surprising you don’t understand how releasing carbon into our atmosphere is absolutely warming our climate well beyond natural variations. Not surprising because you’re a moron (in case you were wondering).

But thanks for posting something from an upstate NY "guest contributor”. He clearly is far more knowledgeable when compared to climate scientists.

If we keep listen to people like you it gonna be 100 windmill in every backyard and then you know what happen next? Bird deaths. And who you gonna blame for the dead birds? AMERICANS! Carbon is natural coal natural and climate natural DEAL WITHIT

When I was checking out the AGU website that he’s so stupid it hurts posted, I came across the article from their leadership about this admins anti science BS.

I am on the side that humans are making climate change worse but that’s not a very big sample size considering the age of the earth, and it only shows that the climate is changing no proof of what is driving it. Ice core samples are a bigger sample size, but still small in comparison to the age of the earth. I believe it is sensationalism that only hurts the message.

I really believe it’s time to change the focus from what or who is causing climate change, and figure out how we are going to adjust to it. Doesn’t mean we should stop promoting cleaner and renewable energy, including nuclear, but we have to stop throwing money into areas that prone to extreme climate. I’m. It not saying we should relocate the entire population of New Orleans, or Hatter Island, etc, but it should be expensive to live there.

The Gulf of Mexico reached highest temperatures ever recorded, breaking last year's record. Combined with La Nina, means potentially more severe storms for the southeast USA.
