Last Tuesday, I was set to give a talk on 'climate change in the Northeast' at a retirement home but had to cancel due to hourly job threats.

After nearly two weeks of overwhelming uncertainty, today it happened. I was fired from my dream of working at NOAA. I'm so sorry to everyone also affected.

The reasons I was given:
--> I did not demonstrate that my work was in the public interest, and my ability, knowledge and/or skills did not match NOAA's needs.

More soon. It will be okay.

@ZLabe You gonna chart their lies, and plot the depravity of their hypothesis vs facts in five colors, and then you are going to publish a bestselling 500page page-turner on how to build one's own offgrid weather reporting station for a community of 750,000 people and federate the data, thus solving world hunger and giving all those probationary workers hope and wonder.
