Did US government cuts contribute to the Texas tragedy?

In the aftermath of the Texas floods, concerns have been raised about the impact of cuts to federal government workforce, including meteorologists, on the National Weather Service's ability to predict and warn about disasters. The Trump administration's proposed cuts to NOAA's budget are part of this issue, including reductions in NWS staff. While some staffing reductions have occurred, experts note that forecasting for the Texas floods was as expected. However, questions remain about the ability of local NWS offices in Texas to effectively coordinate with emergency services due to vacancies.
