The National Weather Service has announced a series of suspensions involving weather balloon launches in recent weeks .
Staff reductions, retirements, and a federal hiring freeze have led to the suspensions.
The question is, will this significantly degrade forecasts in the United States and around the world? In a normal time, weather balloons would be launched twice per day, right at about 8 am ET and 8 pm ET .
