WING Act 2025

Summary#

The WING Act of 2025 would direct the National Weather Service to research ways to reduce the effects of buildings and wind turbines on weather radar. The program would test existing technologies, study new solutions, and develop practical ways to address blocked or inaccurate radar signals. The agency would report to Congress every year after its first report, due within two years of enactment. The program would end by September 30, 2030, or one year after its final recommendation, whichever comes first.
