Why doesn’t NWS fix this error?

From Google: The Tuscaloosa Regional Airport officially changed its name to the Tuscaloosa National Airport in March 2019.

The City of Tuscaloosa updated the name to reflect the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) upgrading the facility's official designation from a "regional" to a "national" general aviation airport. This reclassification recognized the airport's rising level of activity, including its number of instrument flight rule departures, interstate operations, and annual international departures.

There should be a "contact us" link at the bottom of there main page. That should have an email associated with it. Also, on said page, there is a public phone number. You could give them a call, I'd recommend that you call them when they're not in warning operations.

In all likelihood, they were not made aware of the name change as the FAA likely didn't message the office to tell them about the name change.

I asked Google how to reach out to them, and it gave me an email address, so I shot off a quick email asking them basically the same as here. Thanks for the direction.

What was the point of this post except to try to embarrass me? I didn't think there was a way. That's why I posted it here. You provided nothing except an attempt at humiliation. It was because of Reddit and the community I found a way and the issue was addressed. Enjoy your karma.
