9. You are correct, I misread who was demanding this change.

I don't know why I thought is was our State legislature making this demand. It's entirely appropriate for Congress members to make this demand.

“We demand that you immediately reinstate all terminated workers at these offices, lift the federal hiring freeze for NWS, and ensure that the Sacramento and Hanford weather forecast offices are adequately staffed to maintain 24/7 operations,” the congressional members wrote.

When I read Sacramento and Hanford I immediately thought State Reps.
As you can tell my ire is also at a State level not just National.
Thank you for catching that and for the vigorous banter. And for providing us with so much good information on a daily basis.

Enjoy the rest of your weekend.
