Though I have not heard from him since, I assume some comment will arrive soon. We will see how it goes forward. There appears to be also a Version 4 of Cumulus under development, not sure how far that is (if it still goes) it seems to have stopped. What I found is that V4 also would be very different so it seems a crossroad is approaching one way or another.
@all: I recently found that @MeteoSangonera has continued the analysis of pwsFWI (see attached file) versus the prediction over a period of a bit more than a month (1/11 - 5/12). I think I owe you all the presentation of those data in a graph. Note that the deviation of pwsFWI prediction stays normally within 20% of the observed value and rarely goes beyond 30% (pwsFWI values on left Y-axis, percentage on the right Y-axis). So, yes, it may occur that the observed value has a different warning level than the predicted one, but all in all, I think it is a worthwhile addition to the tool. I find myself to check the prediction first and then look at the actual value. That is interesting because in Inverell recently the deviation was such that it went to yellow but when the predicted rain did not fall it remained red and went back to purple. So there is the danger of falsely counting on prediction. But having said that, you are all warned, I may think of adding an automated analysis for the prediction to the analysis tool in future
@MeteoSangonera: 1) Thanks for the continued analysis, sorry I am late with the presentation. 2) Could you set the URL for your website in the corresponding value in the inifile for the Map module? I use the map for easy access to all sites / pwsFWI pages, in the current situation I click on your link and get my own site
