@crowdotblack @alexander0042 Great question, but I’ll have to look into it to get an answer. Do you mind emailing me at [email protected] with the details and we can go from there!

@jd Whenever I see this I always think of the time my wife was reading a book on nutrition during pregnancy from the Ottawa library. Fine enough book, but the last chapter delved into a ton of problematic information on vaccination! My first thought was “There’s no way this sort of stuff should be in the library”, but my second was “Wait, did I just suggest banning a book?”.
@gongonzabarfarbin @alexander0042 So sorry for the slow reply! That’s beyond ok, and please send me the link once it’s written and I’d be happy to share it though my networks too
@blhue I love hearing comments like this- weather data is central to so many applications, it’s great to see how the API is being used
blhue (has moved)Just got your #PirateWeather email update @alexander0042 and am glad to see you're on Mastodon.
I use your service for my #HomeAutomation system via the #FantasticWeather plug-in.
Followed!
@tommasz @[email protected] Thanks for posting, I love hearing how the API is being used! The range of applications for weather data is pretty much endless, which is why it’s so important to have sources that explain exactly what is happening to the data/ where it comes from
And now I want a mug saying “Everyone is stuck in the mesoscale”
Couldn’t agree more:
“Meteorologists tend to talk only about the weather; hydrologists will tell you only about stream flows; engineers know about concrete but can’t comment on climate; climatologists look at systems but rarely want to make specific predictions. Everyone is stuck in the mesoscale“
We have amazing scientists and engineers, but the problems of today are too complex for any one person, and we need multi-disciplinary teams #Climate #Research
@ay8s This has been my struggle (with a real steep learning curve) since Dark Sky shut down last month. It seems like for every bottleneck I fix, another one crops up
@shawnhooper The persistently incorrect narrative on the Brian Coburn extension is in full swing here. The NCC is perfectly happy to sign off on this plan following the alignment agreed to a decade ago that brings rapid transit to Blackburn, avoids Mer Bleue, and adds the necessary road capacity; however, the councillor refuses to acknowledge it
