SolarStorm – Visualising space weather effects on the power grid

Hi HN, I wanted to share my team's side project! We like to do R&D projects and investigate new areas, interesting problems, etc. This application visualises the dynamic interplay between space weather and our terrestrial power grid, focusing on Geomagnetically Induced Currents (GICs) across the UK. By visualising the magnetic field, induced electric field, and resulting GICs, users can identify vulnerable areas of the UK power network and assess the potential for operational disruptions during geomagnetic storms. We would love to get some feedback and expand this to cover more power grids…

    I had been wanting to try experimenting with nowcasting since the death of Dark Sky and finally got around to it. This application essentially became a playground for me to experiment with various weather datasets and geospatial visualizations. Some interesting concepts that came from it: The nowcast is using pySTEPS optical flow under the hood: https://pysteps.readthedocs.io/en/latest/auto_examples/plot_.... This library is super cool. It bugged me that every radar visualization just gave you choppy snapshots in time, so I spent some time working on building a…

    Community, All the HN belong to you. This is an archive of hacker news that fits in your browser. When I made HN Made of Primes I realized I could probably do this offline sqlite/wasm thing with the whole GBs of archive. The whole dataset. So I tried it, and this is it. Have Hacker News on your device. Go to this repo (https://github.com/DOSAYGO-STUDIO/HackerBook): you can download it. Big Query -> ETL -> npx serve docs - that's it. 20 years of HN arguments and beauty, can be yours forever. So they'll never die. Ever. It's the unkillable static archive of HN and it's…
