If an attempt were made to implicate such a (political) move you know it would result in attempts to de-fund any government agency involved and, likely, some that aren't but just sound like they may be.

It's the World Meteorological Organization, part of the UN, that does it, so there's probably be a call for us to drop out of the UN.  (Or bomb something.)

And probably a call to defend NOAA, despite it not actually naming the storms.
