Storm Forecasting and Warning - Another Potential Casualty of 5G???

[Humans Are Free]: Scientists are warning that their precision tracking of hurricanes could be disrupted by signals from the new generation of wireless networks known as 5G that will soon roll out across the U.S. In one test that mimicked interference, Sandy was incorrectly forecast to head out to sea.

At currently proposed 5G power levels, satellites may have trouble reading natural signals given off by water vapor.

That could set back forecast accuracy to levels last seen around 1980, said Neil Jacobs, head of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.

“This would result in the reduction of hurricane track forecast lead time by roughly two to three days,” Jacobs told Congress at a hearing earlier this month.

The U.S. mobile communications industry, which says it’s investing $275 billion in 5G, scoffs at the notion that forecasts might be degraded. Such predictions amount to “an absurd claim with no science behind it,” according to a May 21 blog post by CTIA Executive Vice President Brad Gillen.

That attitude is the problem, for we've seen it before, chiefly in connection to GMO's. Corporate "science" is the "real" science; anything challenging the narrative is "fake" science.

In this case, the concerns of meteorological scientists are simply brushed aside as "an absurd claim with no science behind it."

Indeed, there is no science, nor is there any science behind the claims that 5G is harmless, or that it will not effect weather prediction (or... here it comes... the weather itself)....read more>>>...
