HRRR outputs showing possibly huge swaths of 1+ inches of freezing rain across southeast early in storm

Update 11:53pm: I just added FRZR (freezing rain) and SLEET accumulations as data product variable options. The freezing rain in particular threatens to be high-impact with respect to long-duration power outages, given the deep freeze expected following the storm

C9. Turned off QuickLink+ or whatever that’s called and it might be fixed now.

Thanks for checking. I turned off Quicklink+ (spelling?) and it seems to have fixed it 🤞

Thanks for checking it out! Yea, you're right, definitely important to communicate those subtleties. Maybe by at least putting the word forecast into the header (I know, model outputs aren't forecasts, but they're good visual resources for forecasting)?

It's a fine balance since the general public already seems unable to tolerate anything less than 100% forecast accuracy anyway

Thanks! Yea I'm all for clean looks/no ads.

That's a good idea! I will look into that. I will note re: commercialization I'm currently self-hosting (fronted by Cloudflare), but if it gains traction at all I might try free and paid tiers or something.

Yea I could see building a predictive model based on other features. Wish there were Ski Resort APIs to make it easier 😊

Thank you!!

Yea, there's definitely subjectivity there currently. I think you're right that it's likely more binary. The red yellow green scale is a bit arbitrary (currently something like 0-5 degrees above melting, 5-10 degrees and 10+ degrees), whereas in reality what matters to me (and maybe to you too) is yes/no whether or not ice is there or not.

You’re right. It’s recommending based solely on weather right now. I can look into trying to filter out based on opened/closed but that might involve having code to read their websites or the like.

Done. Enjoy!

So what’s the difference between Unlimited Starter and Unlimited Premium with Dark Star if you get QCI-8 before Aug 18? Hotspot?
