During an interview with CBS News on Monday, Tom Fahi, Legislative Director of the National Weather Service Employees Organization, said that some offices in Texas had vacant management positions, “We had an all-hands-on-deck status, where we had full praise, was a complete employee of meteorologists working in shifts.” And they were warned.
Fahi said, “[I]T was actually at this particular time, in San Angelo and San Antonio offices, yes, yes, three management vacancies, but we had an all-hand-on-deck position, where we were praised, we had complete employees of meteorologists working in those shifts. Now, what was happening to those forecasts, is that they were doing – they were working on overdrive. They were making their maximum efforts to keep people safe to keep people safe. And that message was spread and sent out. The question was, why did it not be found? ,
Earlier, Fahi stated that he saw a time out of one of the forecast stations at 3:38. I realized that it is only 22 -4: 00 to 20 minutes, but, in this case, counting minutes. The counting of minutes. The forecaster immediately saw what he had to do and issued a terrible alert, which was definitely triggered.
