Sen. Chuck Schumer visits SUNY ESF on July 29, 2024, to call for $30 million to upgrade New York 's weather monitoring system.
After a record-setting 20 tornadoes in New York in July alone, U.S. Sen. Chuck Schumer is launching a push for $30 million in federal funding for the nation’s network of weather monitoring systems, known as mesonets. According to the University at Albany, data from the network informs forecasters and emergency managers to help mitigate the harmful effects of high-impact, extreme weather-related disasters by informing emergency alerts, warnings and more.
Schumer’s $30 million push for the national mesonet system via the National Mesonet Program is a public-private partnership in concert with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration and the National Weather Service to cost-effectively leverage available commercial and other non-federal weather data to maximize the public benefit.
