Summary by Sourcery

Support cloud-specific sounding levels and display cloud coverage more accurately on Skew-T charts.

New Features:

  • Render cloud cover on sounding charts using cloud-specific altitude levels and opacity gradients.
  • Select and preserve cloud levels independently from other sounding parameters.

Bug Fixes:

  • Correct cloud data extraction so missing cloud values are not treated as valid zero coverage.

Enhancements:

  • Separate cloud-level data from standard sounding levels throughout forecast state and chart rendering.
  • Improve cloud visualization with upper-cloud indicators and smoothly varying coverage across pressure levels.

Build:

  • Bump the windy-sounding package version to 5.0.6.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Improvements

    • Updated Skew-T cloud visualization with smoother gradients and more accurate cloud-layer placement.
    • Improved rendering of upper-level clouds and cloud opacity.
    • Cloud data is now handled on its own pressure-level scale for clearer atmospheric profiles.
  • Bug Fixes

    • Fixed cloud information being mapped to the chart’s general pressure levels, improving displayed sounding data.

Reviewer's Guide

The PR adds support for cloud data on its own pressure-level grid, propagates those levels through forecast selectors and Skew-T props, and renders cloud cover as pressure-aligned SVG gradients with separate upper-cloud handling; it also bumps the package version and tightens overlay typing.

Review Change Stack

Walkthrough

Changes

The package version changes to 5.0.6. Cloud data now uses a separate level axis, flows through forecast aggregation, and renders in Skew-T with logarithmic interpolation and SVG gradients.

Cloud-level sounding flow

Layer / File(s) Summary
Cloud data contracts and selection
libs/windy-sounding/src/redux/forecast-slice.ts
Cloud properties use separate types and levels. The selector derives descending cloud levels from valid sounding keys.
Cloud period aggregation
libs/windy-sounding/src/redux/forecast-slice.ts
Period computation samples cloud values against cloud levels and returns cloud-level records with PeriodValue.
Skew-T cloud rendering and integration
libs/windy-sounding/src/components/skewt.tsx, libs/windy-sounding/src/containers/containers.tsx, libs/windy-sounding/package.json
ConnectedSkewT passes cloud levels to SkewT. Clouds renders clamped cloud cover with logarithmic interpolation and SVG gradients. The package version changes to 5.0.6.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 7afc9

Cloud visualization can be missing when a sounding contains exactly one cloud level because its opacity calculation becomes invalid. This is a bounded display issue, so the change is mergeable with explicit owner awareness or follow-up.

Poem

A rabbit checks the cloud array,
Separate levels float through air,
Gradients bloom in silver light,
Skew-T draws the layers right,
Version six hops softly there.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Handle a single cloud level before creating the logarithmic scale.

If cloudLevels has one entry, math.scaleLog evaluates sampleAt without a second interpolation endpoint. The resulting cloud opacity is NaN, so Line 584 suppresses the cloud column even when that level has cloud cover. Render a constant-opacity column for one level, or only use scaleLog when there are at least two levels.
