Can a few base maps be ungrayed so you can turn them off when doing verification?

Hi, In IRIS, when you want to do verification you can't ungray a few items

 

1. Select the Verification tab at the bottom

2. Select Map Data

3. The following 3 items are grayed out, and you can't turn them off:

  MRMS Base Reflectivity

  MRMS Composite Reflectivity

  MRMS Echo Tops

 

So the reflectivity image always shows when I am doing verification, especially in real time.

 

Is there anyway from those items to be ungrayed so you can turn them off if you like?

 

I try to send an image too.

 

Thanks,

Jim

Jim,

There is a ticket open for that issue.  No estimate on when it will be addressed.

Thanks,

Jim,

I toggle off the MRMS Base Reflectivity by clicking on the yellow product legend on the right hand side of the window.  So you go from this:

To this:

Notice the product is now greyed out and no longer shows up on the map.

Hi Phil,

Thanks for the tip. 

Here is what is interesting.

I don't have an option to turn off MRMS when I am on the verification tab. However, when I am on the cities Tab I do have that option. 

So, I can just turn off the MRMS in the cities tab first, then go over to the verification tab and do my verification.

I am sending 2 screenshots, one of the cities tab and one of the verification tab.

Thanks for the help.

Jim

Jim,

That is interesting!  I admit I do not use the verification aspect of IRIS that much.  My go to is the DLH Severe Verification Helper:
