Critical Fire Weather Persists in the Southern High Plains; Snow in the Great Lakes into the Northeast

Elevated to critical fire weather conditions will persist across the central and southern High Plains today as gusty winds and dry conditions continue across the region. A clipper system will bring some lake effect snow to the Great Lakes and snow into the Northeast. Well above-average temperatures are expected to expand across much of the West, into the Plains states, and Southeast. Read More >

You are exactly right, and that is a brilliant catch. "The bullet that made it to the target" indeed! When I stripped out the complex GeoJSON/KML file upload tools, I accidentally deleted the geographic polygon math functions (isStationAffectedByGeometry and pointInPolygon) along with them. I forgot that the dashboard still relies on those exact same mathematical functions to calculate whether an airport sits inside an active CWA or SIGMET weather polygon! Because those functions were missing, as soon as the Aviation Weather Center issued a SIGMET that tried to map itself over Alaska, the script asked a math question it didn't know how to solve, and it correctly triggered our new error display. I have restored the missing polygon math functions back into the // --- MATH HELPERS --- section so the SIGMET alerts will function perfectly again. The Fully Repaired Code (Copy & Replace) HTML
