National Weather Service Bulletins [View all]

aren't even reliable under this administration. Today a servere thunderstorm warning was wrongly issued for a number of Western NY counties.

A local weather man, who is very knowledgeable at his job, posted on his personal Facebook page that the wind advisories for the area were correct, but the thunderstorm warnings weren't accurate, and no thunderstorms were expected in the area.

TSF has messed up everything.
