Just fyi the people who own/ run it are assholes and the people who work there are miserable for the most part, so this isn't surprising

You really should be providing a source when you make these kinds of claims:

Joel Myers' Wikipedia article is pretty damning. He does sound like an asshole.

Myers faced criticism in 2005 when he supported the National Weather Service Duties Act of 2005, a bill ... that would have prohibited the National Weather Service from publishing weather data to the public when private-sector entities, such as AccuWeather, perform the same function commercially.

I mean I could but that's what all the people I know who worked there said, and me saying that is the the hearsay I'm sharing
