UCCELLINI: “So let me be clear. The Birmingham office did this to stop public panic, to ensure public safety — the same goal as all the National Weather Service offices were working toward at that time. The system work is designed and based in part on best practices and lessons learned from both physical and social science principles, especially from prior events. The integrity of forecast process was maintained by the Birmingham office and across the entire National Weather Service — actually, the entire enterprise, including the local media.”
