It seems he posted his own reply to that post:

"I interned at the NWS in high school, have always contributed storm reports, and have a lot of friends current and retired NWS forecasters. I love the NWS even though many of the workers there are haters of ours. I am deeply familiar with how important their role is in the warning process, data collection, and numerical weather prediction as well as research. They all deserve our support. I’m not into politics - I dropped out of political science in 1999 to chase Hurricane Floyd and never looked back. The social sciences have never resonated with me. When I saw these firings happening, the least I could do is support my friends at the NWS with a post. I’m just a storm chaser
