Run it

docker run -d -p 8090:8090 -v localsky-data:/data ghcr.io/silenthooligan/localsky:0.4.0-beta.1

Multi-arch image (amd64 + arm64). Quick start: https://localsky.io/docs/getting-started

Live Radar grows from a single precipitation layer into a full weather map: choose your imagery providers, overlay national alerts and worldwide tropical systems, add community lightning and wind flow, and manage all of it from one Layers panel.

Features

  • Radar provider catalog with a Settings > Radar control: pick which imagery providers the map offers (Auto chooses the best regional source, or define a custom menu) and which layers start on. Sources are region-aware, and your layer choices persist per browser
  • National Weather Service alert overlay: severity-colored warning polygons (red extreme, orange severe), tap any polygon for the headline, refreshed every couple of minutes
  • Worldwide tropical cyclone tracking: hurricanes, typhoons, and cyclones normalized from the responsible agencies (NOAA NHC/CPHC, JMA, JTWC) into position markers, track lines, and forecast cones; empty when the basins are quiet
  • Choose your national forecast model: the weather model behind your forecast is now configurable, from a built-in catalog of national and global models
  • Wind flow layer: animated particle flow of current 10 m winds over the visible map, warmer colors for stronger wind, refetched as you pan
  • Opt-in Blitzortung community lightning strikes, off by default
  • Layers panel: one Layers chip opens a drawer of Imagery and Overlays, each with a toggle, an expandable legend, and source attribution; it overlays the map without resizing it and replaces the old legend rail and layer control. A stacked-layers icon, accent outline, and active-count badge make the picker unmistakable, and a footer link jumps straight to Settings > Radar
  • API contract 1.10.0: additive radar endpoints for the tropical-cyclone feed, the wind grid, and the forecast-model catalog

Bug fixes

  • Outbound National Weather Service requests now identify LocalSky by its project URL instead of a personal contact, per the NWS API policy
