The New York Guard (NYG) is the State Defense Force (SDF) of New York State, and is one of the four branches of the New York Military Forces (NYMF), the other three branches being the New York Army National Guard, New York Air National Guard and the New York Naval Militia.[1][2] Originally called the New York State Militia, it can trace its lineage back to the American Revolution and the War of 1812.[3] The organization now has a unified command structure, while formerly it contained an Army Division and an Air Division. The missions of the New York Guard include augmentation, assistance, and support of the New York Army National Guard and New York Air National Guard respectively and aide to civil authorities in New York State. New York also has a New York Naval Militia which, with the State Guard and the Army and Air National Guards, is under the command of the Governor of New York, the Adjutant General of New York, and the Division of Military and Naval Affairs (DMNA).

Service Change Notice 25-36 National Weather Service Headquarters Silver Spring, MD 1030 AM EDT Thu Apr 17, 2025 To: From: Subscribers: -NOAA Weather Wire Service -Emergency Manager Weather Information Network -NOAAPort -Other NWS Partners, Users, And Employees Mike Hopkins, Director Surface and Upper Air Division Office of Observations Subject: Temporary Reduction of Radiosonde Observations, from Selected Sites, Effective April 17, 2025. Until further notice, the National Weather Service (NWS) may temporarily reduce or suspend scheduled radiosonde launches at selected NWS upper air sites due to staffing limitations or operational priorities. Office(s) will continue to conduct special observations as resources allow and in response to emerging weather events. To mitigate potential impacts, the NWS is actively pursuing alternative sources of upper-air data and adjusting internal staffing and procedures to maintain continuity of service. Additional updates will be provided as needed. Under normal operations, the NWS conducts and/or supports radiosonde observations twice a day from 100 upper air sites throughout the United States, Caribbean, and the Pacific Basin. Radiosondes are sensors attached to weather balloons to provide critical upper-atmospheric data including temperature, dew point, relative humidity, pressure, and wind profiles. These data support weather modeling and forecasting and are complemented by observations from aircraft, satellites, radars, surface stations, and ocean buoys. If you or your organization have any questions about these changes, please contact: Mike Hopkins Director Surface and Upper Air Division National Weather Service E-mail: mike.hopkins@noaa.gov National Service Change Notices are online at: https://www.weather.gov/notification/
