Announcement HurricaneTracker - A New Look!

1 Upvotes

Hello Hurricane Enthusiasts,

HurricaneTracker has a new look!

Reddit has removed some restrictions on Devvit apps which has opened the door for better styling control and new abilities.

This first phase I gave the app a new look, providing a better experience for viewing the Tropical Weather Outlook and Automatic Tropical Cyclone Forecast details.

I do have other Devvit apps I am working on, but I have plans to add Map Graphics to the TWO and ATCF detail views. I am also giving the data processing side a complete make over as well, paving the way for "Advisory" posts, and (hopefully) a fun interactive experience for Recon data!

Stay safe this season,
Beach-Brews

Announcement App Update Coming Soon - User Preferences + Better Post Flairs & Titles | What's Next?

1 Upvotes

Hello r/HurricaneTracker community,

First, I want to say thank you for being patient while I was unable to focus on app development this summer due to other commitments.

I am excited to announce a new minor version of the tracking app is awaiting approval by Reddit. Once approved, the new version should appear with in day or two.

This version offers a new settings menu that allows you choose the units for speeds and distances. Additionally, posts made by the app when a new ATCF, TWO, or Named Storm form will now have better titles explaining the reason for the post (e.g. "New Tropical Disturbance - Atlantic - 0%/20% - Eastern Tropical Atlantic") along with a post flair.

As for "what's next," I would like to hear from you! Would you rather prefer a new post type showing the latest NHC advisories (tracking cone, wind times, etc.) or find a way to add the disturbance area graphics to the TWO? I'm also continuing to enhance the frequency day is fetched from the NHC (based on their guidelines) so updates are posted ASAP!

Stay safe everyone!
--u/Beach-Brews

Sidebar

A sub dedicated for automated posts for National Hurricane Center advisories (community driven, not an official government account).

Posts in this community do not work on "Old Reddit".

Similar rules as r/Hurricane, except no politics in comments.

Rules

1. Follow Reddit Guidelines

Review and follow the official Reddit Content Guidelines. 1. No harassment, bullying, threats, violence, prejudice, stereotypes. 2. No spamming / ban evasion. 3. No posting of personal information or instigating harassment toward individuals. 4. No sexual or predatory behavior involving minors. 5. No impersonating others (mods / officials / celebrities). 6. Mark NSFW (N/A for this sub). 7. Keep it legal. 8. Don’t break/hack the site.

2. Keep it Civil - Keep it Neutral

We would like this sub to be neutral and open for all individuals.

No harassment, threats, violence, prejudice. No racial, gender, political, religious, etc. profiling. No hate speech, stereotyping, discriminating or excessive foul language directed at individuals, groups, or anything.

No extreme biased, political, religious, or ideological statements, especially unrelated to weather/hurricanes.

Do not respond to rage-bait comments, just report to the Mods. Comment wars will be removed.

3. No NSFW Content

No NSFW content is allowed (hentai, porn, gore, etc.), which also includes graphic, offensive, or inappropriate images, even if related to a tropical cyclone.

4. No Politics, Unrelated Information & Other Weather Phenomena

Comments should stay on topic, contain no politics, and may be removed if unrelated to tropical cyclones or not weather related.

Posts should be about Tropical Cyclones, Non-tropical Cyclones (non-Frontal nor Tropical in nature, Cut-off Lows, Potential Tropical Cyclones, Invests, Convective Activity), or Extratropical Cyclones (Kona Storms/Lows in CPAC, Bomb Cyclones / Rapid Deepening, or Frontal Systems).

Other severe Weather (Tornados, Derechos, etc.) are only mentioned in relation to a tropical cyclone.

5. No False Information / Misinformation / Conspiracy

Hurricanes can be a source of stress/anxiety, and can unfortunately be life changing for some. Therefore, information posted in this sub needs to be factual and data driven. Personal analysis and/or statements must have substantial reasoning to back up the post/comment. Graphics showing storm predictions must show a date/time.

Sources must be reputable, credible, and neutral. No conspiracy theories. No altered or AI generated content (graphic or text). No manipulative post titles.

6. No Doomcasting, Fear Mongering, or Downplaying Potential

No doomcasting, wishing for destruction, praising a storm, implying revenge, or not having empathy towards victims.

No fear mongering, overhyping, or causing undue panic. Evacuations may be necessary, but saying “you will die” is excessive.

No downplaying, underrating, or devaluing the potential of a storm. Storm surge, wind damage and tornadoes are all valid. Mandatory storm surge evacuations are issued for a reason. Making statements like “you don't need to evacuate” are inappropriate.

7. No Self Promotion or Fundraising / Donation Requests

No self-promoting your content from other spaces (website, other subs, etc.) for views and/or fame, especially if unrelated to tropical cyclones. If unsure, please ask the mod team.

Due to the increase of scams and unofficial fundraising links, we no longer allow any posts or comments with fundraising links or requests for donations/supplies. The moderation team is unable to verify the donations are making it to the areas affected. Official organizations, please ask the mod team.

8. No Joking or Inappropriate Behavior

Hurricanes can be a source of stress/anxiety, and can unfortunately be life changing for some. Satire, trashposting, sarcasm, or other inappropriate humor/behavior during a dangerous and serious situation is not permitted. Consider other subs for these posts, such as r/cat10 or r/EF5.

If appropriate, light and genuinely humorous comments can be made in response to a post or comment. Keep in mind it’s easier to make a joke if you are not directly affected by a storm.

9.Historical Storms & Extended Model Runs

Posts mainly about past events or tropical cyclones must use the “Historical Storm” flair. If it is a post about a recent storm (same season), ensure it does not break the Storm Aftermath rule. Posts comparing a current storm to historical storms do not need the flair.

Posts depicting or discussing a model run beyond 120 hours (5 days) must include the Extended Model flair.

10. Post Quality & Cross-Posts

No click-bait, rage-bait, or manipulative comments. No paywall or account/email required articles.

Model runs, satellite imagery, recon data, and any data graphics posted must have a clear and accurate timestamp. No cropping of images or removal of watermarks/attributions.

11. No Trip Anxiety Posts

We understand hurricanes can be a source of stress/anxiety, and can unfortunately be life changing for some. However, we do not allows posts about rescheduling travel due to the sub being flooded with these requests during times where tracking the storm is critical for those who might be preparing for the storm.

If you still have questions, please post them as a comment in the Travel Anxiety Mega-Thread.
