Weather Pulse Status

@therobdale @RadarScope You can open a ticket with AH in the future since we're the supplier. I'm not aware of any issues Saturday but didn't look into it at the time.

AllisonHouse Maps Changes ECMWF - 0.25deg (+360 00/12Z) Rapid Refresh Forecast System - 3km (+18 hourly/+60 00, 06, 12, 18Z) HRRR - 3km (Corrected, +18 hourly/+48 00, 06, 12, 18Z) RAP - 13km is back! (+21 hourly/+51 03, 09, 12, 15, 18Z)

Today we rewrote our lightning ingest code. We had rewritten it once late last year and it had been working great. Unfortunately our provider's systems have been dropping our connection lately so things had to be improved knowing that. Let us know if you see any irregularities.

Yesterday we rewrote the SCIT placefile from scratch due to some complaints. Now we need feedback on the efficacy if you have any. All cells are currently being plotted but we plan on adding filters (dBZ, height, speed). We'll be putting the product timestamp in the feed title.

Super-Res Correlation Coefficient is now available in GRLevel3 v3. Stop Polling > Configure Polling > Check that your AH Polling URL is entered > OK is all AH customers will need to do.

We've worked around this outage by using a different (older) endpoint.

Currently an ongoing lightning data outage at our provider. Please use GLM in the interim. status.allisonhouse.com/incident/549888

QPF Day 0 has been added (6 hour forecast) to the data feeds. Day 0, 1, 2 & 3 are now available.

Here are our hail alerts in action. We're processing every scan but plan to allow you to choose for alerts to be processed every half hour to reduce the frequency. Size, household # and income are all configurable filters. Currently email only but adding text messages shortly.

GREarth with the Watches, Warnings and Advisories is pretty lit up today. #USwx

Our zone database has been updated for data feeds which use it, coinciding with the NOAA/NWS rollout at 0319/21Z.

Effective immediately, and until further notice, the National Weather Service (NWS) is temporarily suspending some weather balloon launches in Albany, New York, and Gray, Maine, due to a lack of Weather Forecast Office (WFO) staffing. #NYwx #MEwx #USwx

We have reactivated our direct feed to the FAA for METAR/SPECI data. This will result in the data being displayed slightly faster by avoiding the middle man (NWS).

Text message lightning alerts? Warning alerts? What about hail alerts? I'd do a poll but I personally want all 3.

Brief Level 3 outage upstream. Things are back above 75% but we’re still seeing quite a few sites not reporting. Level 2 is 100% available in the Eastern, Central and Southern regions as is our Super-Resolution Level 3.

Our services were under attack for roughly 3 hours this morning. This attack has since been mitigated with no impact to service availability. You may receive a challenge when visiting AllisonHouse.com or GREarth.co as part of this mitigation.

This maintenance was completed without downtime. We will continue to monitor the service to verify that all issues have been resolved.

We are updating a data cache that has misbehaved a few times recently. This may lead to a brief website and data feed outage.

@faraday1056_wx @JuniorTvspace Correct, X-Band once per minute.

@JuniorTvspace @AH_Status X band, updates minutely i want to say

GAWX in Lawrenceville, Georgia has been added to AllisonHouse and Iowa State Level 2 data feeds. This radar offers 1 minute scans and as of right now, the file sizes are ~20MB with little to no returns meaning they will be significantly larger when there are radar returns.

@WeatherMatrix There's a form field limitation that will require other changes. We plan to remove the no longer issued phenomena but want to do so responsibly for archived data. No ETA.

@AH_Status I see I can customize GR3 colors for Extreme Cold Watch & Warnings now. Can you please add Cold Advisory color customization?

Cold Weather Advisories now appear in data feeds.
