Documentation for /cgi-bin/request/gis/lsr.py

This service emits NWS Local Storm Report (LSR) data in various formats. This dataset is as live as when you query it as reports are ingested in realtime.

Changelog

  • 2024-04-05: Initial documentation release and migration to pydantic.
  • 2024-04-05: The legacy usage of wfo[] for CGI arguments is still supported, but migration to wfo is encouraged.

CGI Arguments

The following table lists the CGI arguments that are accepted by this service. A HTTP GET request is required. Fields of type Multi-Params or CSV value can accept either a comma separated list or multiple parameter and value combinations. For example, ?foo=1&foo=2 is equivalent to ?foo=1,2.
