NOAA also collects and analyzes key climate data
You're viewing a single thread.
Who do they think the local weather people get their data from? Where do they think weather says comes from?
They know who it comes from. They want to change that answer from "free from NOAA" to "on a subscriber basis from private companies like AccuWeather".
Doesn't AccuWeather also depend on NOAA data? I was under the impression that they basically just parse the stuff that NOAA/NWS puts out and make people pay to have convenient access to it. Am I misremembering something?
They get some, maybe most, of their info from NOAA, yes. I'm honestly not sure what AccuWeather's plan would be if NOAA were to be killed. They seem to have one given that they're one of the groups behind the push to privatize NOAA's work.
