Weather Service faces backlash after launching ‘slow,’ ‘unusable’ radar website

I couldn't agree more... POS. What they had previously was great just as it was.

Yup. It is ruined. It was pretty good and now they have the worst product around.

As an example, I maneuvered to Tampa radar.
You make it do what you want ? LOL
I bet you can't get anything thats worf a hoot.

Now here is where you are supposed to start to get to the page that don't work

Yea, right.
Why do we expect anything from government any more, all they do is useless bullcrap.

The worst part is they are claiming they need more money to make it right.

I think all this is intentional, the govt. cannot be this incompetent by accident.

Meanwhile you better fined a useable radar somewhere to get a view of that hurricane and where its turning.

Geez.

Yes but someone got RICH

True.
The woman in charge there (see any problems with that? LOL)
says they need more money.

LOL

And a ton of excuses as to how the site is better as the heat gets turned up on her ass.
Double down on failure. Government employees are not answerable to anyone and never face the consequences of their actions.

Lets to the same now to the highway system. the rail system, etc.

They already improved the USPS to being about 40% as efficient as it was two years ago.

Another billion and a half to some bammy friends?

they didnt want us seeing how dew works so they made a cartoon site to dumb us down.

"Welcome to FAQs about the National Weather Service’s new radar webpage located at radar.weather.gov and launched on December 17, 2020. We redesigned our radar viewer to improve our services to the public. "

LOL!

There was no election fraud either.

They will be coming to take me away hoho.
To the funny farm.

Take the shot, you need the shot to find out whats in it.

On purpose...they don't want you to see and know an Ice Age is starting

Global Freezing...

It's this way with everything the government does because the only people that take a government job are deranged sexually disoriented boot licking types.

Not the kind of people that are dedicated to serving you.

Programmers of Color

The inefficiency in the system will start to accelerate now at blinding speed since the commie parasites have taken over. They don’t know how to keep society running efficiently and they have made the people who do (white males) the official enemy.

Yes that weather site really sucks. Compare it to;

Maybe the same 'obama friends' that got 2 billion dollars to make the first obamacare website did it. The never work either.

I can vouch for that sentiment. That POS takes several minutes to load any usable data. You might do better to stick your head out the door and look for yourself. Its bad!

Neil Jacobs, the acting head of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, which oversees the Weather Service, wrote in an email that a core problem is that the Weather Service is running this radar product on its own hardware rather than through cloud service providers such as Amazon Web Services, Microsoft and Google Cloud, which “can easily handle the bandwidt

There you go, Neil Jacobs is going to make sure it sucks until his handlers in big tech are given control through their server farms.

If ya need a good Florida radar......the South Florida Water Mgmt District has a statewide active radar

Variances are needed to replace what was once good.

All the imagery you need of the Western hemisphere. [link to www.star.nesdis.noaa.gov (secure)]

Add this and you can do all your own weather modeling. [link to www.weather.gov (secure)]

The worst part is people like me used that SO often, when the satellite goes down and there is no where to get info...now I got squat with storm season around the corner

Not a shocker... its the gubment.

Its too much to ask for a simple radar that just shows you current radar.

I guess its now for tracking people, not radar?

Sucks, the national radar loop mosaic was my go to weather website. Now it's useless.

Yeah I have no idea who the hell thought it was a good idea to get rid of that for the disaster they have now. Radar scan intervals are different for each radar and this is not at all addressed in the new format. Half the time it doesn’t loop and if finally does load it loops through so slowly.
