I’m supposing he hadn’t dropped his bomb yet. He complained regularly about the lack of movable type, as well as the increasing lack of time to do the things he wanted to do with the weather/ Yesterday’s long ranger had Joe looking a bit pale and sounding strained. There were signs, if you were paying attention.
And he’s in a position to get big money these days. He’s as passionate about the weather as a man can be. Bastardi can forecast without a net, he doesn’t need Accu-Weather to perform the job, only data.Ī guy like Joe would not leave without a new deal in progress. Heh, it’s fun to watch the self delusion going on over there. Though, that doesn’t stop Joe Romm from spinning into a “climate related” issue, insinuating that Bastardi was “let go” over Romm’s idiotic postings about Bastardi’s views on climate change. It’s simply about economics and workload. “Can definitively say that his stance on Climate Change did not have anything to do with his departure.” I’ve been aware of Bastardi’s departure since early last week, and I can second that.
“ community director Jesse Ferrell stated in the AccuWeather forums that he has not spoken to Joe and does not know his reasoning, or what he is planning to do next.”Īnd, in the comments section, Jesse Ferrell left a note: “Can definitively say that his stance on Climate Change did not have anything to do with his departure.” We can answer any (reasonable) questions here ( at the Facebook page). In addition, a hearty congratulations to two great meteorologists who will both be taking on expanded roles - Paul Pastelok is now leader of AccuWeather’s Long-Range Forecasting team and Henry Margusity is taking an expanded role with the Pro site.
We appreciate Joe’s dedicated service to our clients over these many years and wish him luck with all his endeavors. Farewell to Joe Bastardi who has left AccuWeather after a distinguished 32-year career.
