Point values

Click or tap the map to read the model value in that grid cell. Values come from the original grid, never from the smoothed display.

About these maps

NOAA HRRR, 3 km. Every model grid cell is drawn as its own shape at its exact position (corners from the model's Lambert conformal projection), so cells look like cells at any zoom: zooming never adds model detail. "Smooth display" blends colours between cell centres for readability only; it never crosses missing data, and point values always come from the original cells. Wind speed is calculated from compatible 10-m wind components; gusts are the separate surface gust diagnostic at the valid hour. Total cloud cover is for the entire atmosphere, not cloud ceiling. Composite reflectivity is the model's column maximum; 1 km reflectivity is the model at 1,000 m above ground; both are simulated, not radar. Precipitation windows are read from the GRIB accumulation intervals and are blank unless every hour is present. The closest zoom is limited to a Cincinnati-area regional view. City labels are deliberately sparse; venue labels appear when selected. Roads are shown without route-number badges. Weather fields download only when selected; up to two runs are kept in memory for quick switching. Geography: US Census boundaries (us-atlas) and Natural Earth (public domain); towns from GeoNames (CC BY 4.0). Model guidance only, not an official forecast.
