Some new features and products in Heimdall tonight. Primarily, requested additions of dual pol products (CC and ZDR), and crosshairs for data inspection. Holding left-alt will put the readout crosshairs on the mouse.

Small Heimdall update today! Added MRMS QPE:FFG ratio as requested by a FEMA colleague. Added “reload application” button to the settings menu if you’re using it as a PWA & need a reload for any reason. App live polls every hour for updates, gives notification of update. Clicking reloads.

One of NOAA's true gems - which could be at risk under POTUS' FY27 budget - are its testbeds which test & evaluate NOAA research for how it can improve its operations. I wrote today about my experience participating in a NOAA winter weather forecasting testbed experiment. tinyurl.com/35pua9cc

Look closely for the double rainbow!

This is what untrained alert and message senders do to get on my list of "INEFFECTIVE MESSAGES" for my next training sessions... Why is the alert blue? What's a LE officer? Not good.

FEMA did not answer ProPublica’s questions about its missed application deadline or the impact of funding cuts and delays, instead responding with a statement that Secretary Noem is focused on bringing accountability to FEMA’s spending

I can see how this isn’t what many consider to be a good move #GreySky #EMGTwitter — NWS NCEP CENTRAL OPERATIONS 2004Z TUE APR 01 2025 Due to a contract lapse, NWS paused the automated language translation services for our products until further notice.

DHS no longer wants data collected on domestic terrorism... www.start.umd.edu/news/stateme... "our team had completed incident identification for the first two months of 2025, and we found a 25% increase in events over the same period in 2024." #GreySky #EMGTwitter

I’m flattered people care about the NWC/SPC, but we’ve got to stop with the false reporting of the ROC lease as the NWC lease. The square footage and annual lease cost are nowhere near in the same ballpark. You guys give me a heart attack every time this happens.
