NEW: California scientists say a Trump admin proposal to cut tens of millions of dollars to NOAA-funded programs would hamper weather forecasting, disrupt critical ocean data collection and decimate climate research.

@sfchronicle.com spoke to more than a dozen CA scientists. Here’s what they said:

From a fine dining bonanza from a renowned chef to a bakery serving astonishing tortas trussed in plastic wrap, these are our top Bay Area restaurants.

Thanks so much!

Update of our #StandUpforScience story to include photos by Gabrielle Lurie that capture the energy at the event! www.sfchronicle.com/science/arti...

And I loved seeing all the creative signs that people made!

Lots of people showed up for the #StandUpforScience rally in San Francisco today! I chatted with scientists and supporters at the event for a @sfchronicle.com story with Roland Li: www.sfchronicle.com/science/arti...

A big thanks to the scientists who spoke with me, including @needhibhalla.bsky.social, @ucsdcooperlab.bsky.social, @adernburg.bsky.social and more! And I’m grateful to Hannah Hagemann for edits.

I learned a lot from scientists about what cutting federal funds for research means in my latest for @sfchronicle.com. The impacts were even more than I’d expected www.sfchronicle.com/weather/arti...

Just in time for #StandUpForScience2025, I spoke with @jackjlee.bsky.social at the @sfchronicle.com about the impacts of cutting federal funding of science and biomedical research: “We’re...wondering why something that has benefited from bipartisan support for 70 years is now currently a target.”

Hello! Hope you've been well!!

I can only imagine! I've been trying to learn more for this story I'm working on and it seems like...a lot

It's me! And yup doing well -- hope you're doing well too!!

Looking into potentially writing about the rally in San Francisco!

Working on a story for @sfchronicle.com about the administration's impacts to science, including #NIH and #NSF funding. Hoping to chat with early-career scientists, especially grad students and postdocs, about how you've been affected. Thanks!

BTW, if you work in the weather/climate/disaster/emergency management space and are/were a federal employee who has been fired in recent hours/days, there are multiple journalists interested in speaking to you (and will be watching replies on this thread).
