Worth noticing
The page explains its forecast assumptions: transparency follows humidity, seeing the 250 hPa jet stream, wind ground gusts, and darkness twilight and moonlight.

Field notes

An observer can set a site by location or coordinates, then move among hourly, seven-night, and night-timeline views. The page spells out the weather assumptions behind its layers, including humidity for transparency and the 250 hPa jet stream for seeing. It attributes forecast data to Open-Meteo, Kp to NOAA SWPC, and light pollution to NASA VIIRS; the extracted page showed a loading forecast, so successful data retrieval was not confirmed.
