Standing under the dark skies in Montauk this morning was perfect. Nothing beats photographing the Milky Way this time of year since there's no bugs and no crowds of other photographers around.

The statement from NOAA:

Through strategic transformation, staff reallocation, and updated service standards, NWS is ensuring resilience and continuity of mission-critical functions. Reports suggesting otherwise are false and disrespectful.

Sunrise this morning from New Jersey. There’s nothing quite like witnessing the sun slowly rise over the NYC skyline.

For those keeping score at home...

Denver: Stopped launching balloons in 2022 because of helium shortages

Tallahassee: Stopped launching balloons in 2024 because of helium shortages

Kotzebue, Albany, and Gray: Weather balloons stopped in March 2024 because of staffing shortages.
More fallout from the indiscriminate NWS firings:

"Effective immediately, and until further notice, the [NWS] is temporarily suspending some weather balloon launches in Albany, New York, and Gray, Maine, due to a lack of Weather Forecast Office (WFO) staffing."

This afternoon, the current presidential administration unjustly laid off many National Weather Service (NWS) employees, including some of my close personal friends. They are dedicated meteorologists, forecasters, and technicians who have spent their careers protecting lives.
