Exceptional heat in the Northwest

 A quick little note about the record-breaking temperatures in the Northwest this weekend. These temperatures exceed the 95th percentile HRRR analysis "climatology" by over ten degrees.


And the forecast for later today

New Documentation

 I finally got around to consolidating some of my more useful Python code and generated Sphinx documentation.



Please check out the following packages:

  • GOES-2-go
    • download GOES-16 or GOES-17 data from Amazon Web Services (ABI and GLM data).
    • RGB recipes for ABI images (Natural Color, Air Mass, Water Vapor, etc.)
  • SynopticPy:
    • Retrieve mesonet data from the Synoptic API
  • HRRR-B:
    • Download HRRR data from the HRRR archives at the University of Utah's Pando archive, Google Cloud Platform, and Amazon Web Services.
