I contacted the new NOAA weather radar site team numerous times over a couple years as they began testing the new site. They were completely unresponsive to all input from me or anyone else. It would be so simple to just maintain the animated gif CONUS weather radar map in addition to fancy cloud javascript applications, but no, they went ahead and "replaced" it with a javascript monstrosity that doesn't even work for half the users, myself included.

I gave up even trying to get a response when their entire @noaa.gov email system went down due to the solar winds hack and them proxying all their mail through fireeye.gov. This caused all spf checks to fail for any mail coming from anywhere except within google's email empire.

Being forced into the cloud is what killed NOAA. They could've upgraded from their 2005 setup to something a bit more modern but instead they migrated to the cloud and it ruined everything.
