  • The events list is now automatically filtered to only show events that are visible in the current map view, and a "List All" button has been added to see the full list of active events. (Fixed #466)

Updates

  • IMERG Rain Rate is now a default layer for Severe Storm Events and IMERG Snow rate is a default layer for Snow Events.
