Representative Eric Swalwell and former NOAA administrators claim vacant positions hindered emergency response. Critics argue that the warnings were issued but the underlying meteorological models were simply incorrect.

The hosts mock the climate change narrative, noting that the National Weather Service's technical definition of a White Christmas (one inch of snow) was met despite "warmer than average" warnings.

The hosts criticize this narrative, arguing that the agencies underplayed the severity of Hurricane Helene. They question the accuracy of the "40 trillion gallons of rain" statistic reported by the Associated Press.

Media reports from NPR and the BBC claimed that roads might melt and that wildfires in France and Portugal were fueling the heat. Skeptics compare these temperatures to routine summer weather in Arizona and Palm Springs.

Despite advanced supercomputers and hurricane hunters, the "Blizz-pocalypse" resulted in a significant over-prediction for New York City. Bridgeport Mayor Bill Finch is criticized for using a phone appearance with Al Sharpton to praise the Reverend's "fight" against climate change during the storm.

The segment transitions into a discussion about a new handheld ham radio with APRS and National Weather Service alert capabilities, which proved useful during recent heavy flooding in Austin, Texas.

Critics argue the new scale is based on subjective damage indicators rather than empirical wind speed analysis, potentially allowing for the recategorization of storms to support global warming narratives. The change is compared to previous adjustments in earthquake measurement scales.

He cites a local news report showing a stationary, high-energy "blotch" on weather radar at the time of the event, which the National Weather Service could not identify as precipitation or smoke. Curry suggests the birds flew into a high-energy force field created by HAARP testing related to the New Madrid fault line.
