Weather experts are warning that hurricane forecasts will be severely hampered by the upcoming cutoff of key data from U.S. Department of Defense satellites. It is the latest move by the Trump administration with potential consequences for the quality of forecasting. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration said it would stop collecting and distributing data from three weather satellites that it jointly runs with the Defense Department. The data is used by scientists, researchers and forecasters including the National Hurricane Center. It helps peer under a regular image of a hurricane or a tropical cyclone to see what is going on inside the storm, and is especially helpful at night.
