Ovation Model bugged out

[Christopher S.]

This data has not updated for a while now. Issue on SWPC side or with SWL? From what I can tell this is an error on NOAA's side.

Thanks for the report. SWPC did some changes in the data and thus broke our code. Mostly they don't warn about this so we where unaware until now. We did what we need to change 😉  all is good again 🙂

Thank you for tentatively keeping this site flawless ❤️ 

Apologies for the double-post, but it would seem that the information tooltip that shows up when you mouse-over the Hemispheric Power header says "...up to 30 minutes in the future" whereas it actually seems to be further in the future than that. Is this an improvement to the model or...?

SWPC updated the ovation model, they didn’t mention a longer forecast period, should still be 30 minutes as mentioned on ovation as well. I guess it depends on the data, perhaps shorter when solar wind is higher.

It does seem to be 1-hour forecasting in low wind. This is a neat improvement over the previous 30 minutes, but as it ramps up we'll know for sure.
