There are so many little cuts that are surfacing in the US weather forecasting system this year. Daily forecasts wrong, weekly forecasts wrong. Storms that shouldn't have happened or moved on just sit and spin. Flights are getting randomly more turbulent, as they don't have the jet stream forecasts to plot daily routes and have to rely more on the first plane to hit it to report it back. The systems had enough failsafes that are slightly holding them together, but it is extremely apparent the damage is already present and becoming worse.

'Death by a thousand cuts'
Red state. Voted for it. Why care? (Rhetorical, there is no reason)
May they have the day they voted for.
Right except that voting patterns don't fall along state borders jackass. Rural Alaska is famously deep blue because of the high percentage of indigenous residents. Maybe you arrogant fucks sitting comfy in your deep blue states where you don't have to do anything to get the results you want should have more sympathy for those of us trying to push this boulder up a red hill.
I’m so torn. I’m happy that there weren’t any hurricanes this year (yet), but I kinda wanted one to go straight for Florida.
I'm looking forward to one pulling apart MAGA-largo.
I guarantee there will be a fundraiser to repair the damages.
It was only a matter of time
And not much time at that. Surfs up for hurricane season
