It's actually illegal to falsify a government weather forecast.
In what appeared to be a bizarre attempt to justify a days-old tweet, President Donald Trump on Wednesday publicly displayed a doctored, nearly week-old image of Hurricane Dorian’s projected path, in an apparent effort to save face by claiming he was right when he wrongly said Alabama was at risk.
However, Alabama was not in the storm’s “cone of uncertainty,” and about 20 minutes after Trump’s tweet the National Weather Service tweeted: “Alabama will NOT see any impacts from #Dorian.” When reporters asked Trump if the second bubble had been drawn on, he replied: “I don’t know, I don’t know.” This was the originally projected path of the Hurricane in its early stages. As you can see, almost all models predicted it to go through Florida also hitting Georgia and Alabama. I accept the Fake News apologies! pic.twitter.com/0uCT0Qvyo6
