Firings at NOAA & Other Vital Agencies Must Be Reversed
Contact your representatives in the United States Congress to pressure the current administration to fully reverse its firings in the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) and other vital agencies that protect Americans on a daily basis. Your voice can help protect those you care about until the next time we vote by letting your elected leaders know how you feel. Random firings, and cuts to vital organizations like the National Weather Service (NWS), only do harm. No one should want to make Americans less safe. Help your elected leaders understand that or let them know you will vote for different leaders in the future if they are unwilling to pressure the current administration to fully reverse these firings. Now is not the time to be silent.

NOAA offers a vast amount of products that are used throughout the U.S. by local governments, websites, apps, news organizations and others. The interruption, or loss, of any of their services could have devastating impacts that could be felt by not only every American, but also hundreds of millions of others around the world that also rely on the expertise of those at NOAA to provide timely data that saves lives.
While this site mostly relies on raw data from NOAA, we are not affiliated with the U.S. government. However, if the data from NOAA were to ever stop being free, or if actions by the current administration resulted in a loss in the availability of the data at times, or permanently, our services would be impacted, or end, for some products.

All times and dates on this page are in Zulu time.

Non-tasked Air Force missions, other than winter storm tracks, usually have a 15 digit number for an identifier. (and sometimes 11 digits) Sometimes they might drop a single sonde or two and have a few non-tropical RECCO messages. Long term, this data is likely less important than other data. Missions with an 11 or 15 digit identifier are automatically deleted after 21 days.
