Update: August 5, 2025:

Due to the today's welcome and much overdue news of the NWS receiving permission to hire up to 450 meteorologists,
hydrologists, and radar technicians (which is still not enough), along with public safety exemption from hiring freezes,
coolwx.com will be restarted in the next week once I've had a chance to bring everything back up as previously.

Thank you for your patience and understanding during the past 5-6 months.

Now let's offer those that were let go unfairly their jobs back as well, so they don't have to start again near the bottom after so many years working in those positions.
