NEW YORK (AP) — U.S. Sen. Charles Schumer is warning that a lack of funding to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's budget could lead to big problems with the nation's weather satellites when the next big storm hits. The New York Democrat said current congressional appropriation bills won't provide enough funding for the agency, and he warned that storms like Hurricane Joaquin show the need to upgrade and maintain the nation's fleet of satellites. The federal government is expected to eventually have a replacement satellite operating, though there would be a gap of at least a year, beginning in 2016, before a new satellite could be launched, Schumer said.
