Released a quick patch for FireWxPy (FireWxPy v1.6.5) to fix bugs associated with the Theta-E Two Point Cross-sections. Also added plt.close(fig) to every function in cross_sections since that was missing before to fix potential memory issues. #python #weather #firewxpy

FireWxPy has officially reached 5000 downloads on Anaconda today! Also 1600 pip downloads in the last month! This project is becoming much bigger than my original expectation. My original expectation was maybe a couple to a few hundred downloads at most. #python #firewxpy #milestone #datascience

Wow! #firewxpy

The RH cross-sections (cross-section between two points) is another one that is really nice to look at. #python #dataviz #firewxpy

Now we have Theta-E Time Cross Sections with wind barbs. #python #dataviz #firewxpy

Just created 2 more FireWxPy Time Cross-Sections! These are great for visualizing temperature and moisture advection. Temperature & Wind Barbs as well as RH & Wind Barbs. CAA and Dry Air Advection in the low and mid-levels is forecast at JFK Airport in NYC. #python #dataviz #nywx #firewxpy

A new @unidata.bsky.social blog just dropped and it is 🔥🔥🔥!! Thank you to the team at Unidata for sharing my work with the broader meteorology community. #python #dataviz #firewxpy #wxsky #wxblue

Here is the GEFS. #python #dataviz #firewxpy

Reposting this for visibility: A reminder that a major change between firewxpy v1.1 and firewxpy v1.2 is firewxpy v1.2 you need to be using Python 3.10 or newer. The lifecycle of Python 3.8 has ended and 3.9 is nearing the end of its life. #python #dataviz #firewxpy #meteorology

🧵FireWxPy v1.2 will no longer support Python 3.8 and 3.9. You must use Python 3.10 or newer. Python 3.8 end of life was this past October and 3.9 is nearing the end of its life. Siphon 0.10.0 works with the newest versions of xarray while siphon 0.9 does not. [1/2] #python #dataviz #firewxpy

911 downloads! 89 more downloads and we reach 1000!! #firewxpy

This update isn't publicly available yet but it is coming in FireWxPy 1.2 which is in development and should hopefully be released within the next month or so. #firewxpy #python #dataviz

800 downloads! #firewxpy

Finished the RTMA Alaska graphics section. Now to RTMA Hawaii... #python #dataviz #firewxpy

The barrier jet in the Gulf of Alaska is fun to look at with the firewxpy wind graphics. #python #dataviz #firewxpy

@ic3mandan.bsky.social and now the same thing, except we are using wind gust rather than sustained wind. #python #dataviz #firewxpy

Here is the same for AJK, ALU and AFG. #dataviz #python #firewxpy

Here is a fun one! Alert, Nunavut on the north shore of Ellesmere Island in Canada. #python #dataviz #solar #firewxpy

Done! Here is the new upcoming firewxpy daily solar information graphic. #dataviz #python #firewxpy #solar

Be sure to give a follow to @firewxguy.bsky.social on bluesky for firewxpy updates/tutorials and some fire weather analysis. Let's see if we can reach 1K followers by Thanksgiving! 😂🤣

firewxpy/Documentation at main · edrewitz/firewxpy This repository consists of functions to make plots of weather data specific to fire weather. There are functions here useful to anyone in Meteorology as well. This work is largely inspired by MetP...

If anyone here has played around with firewxpy, please let me know what you think. Feel free to comment or DM.

Here are some useful materials for those who use it 👇

In order to pin my firewxpy tutorial, I put a link to the firewxpy release notes and to my github page in my bio. That way my followers can still find the release notes even if I pin a tutorial which unpins the release notes tweet. #python #dataviz #firewxpy

The 12z NKX sounding illustrates how a small shift in wind can have a profound effect on the marine layer. There is less of an onshore (W'ly-component) today than yesterday. While it is still fairly humid, the marine layer is weaker at 12z today than 12z yesterday. #cawx #dataviz #python #firewxpy
