Field notes
The explorer accepts a town, coordinate pair, or browser location and presents crop-specific growing-degree-day totals alongside season-to-date information. Its comparison layer ranks prior seasons against the current one, while the site explicitly cautions that analog years are not forecasts. The documented data chain includes NASA POWER, airport observations, NOAA and Open-Meteo forecasts, NOAA outlooks, and USDA county yields.
