Where to Find Blacklisted Sites

Youngling Posts: 5 Join Date: 3/28/18 Recent Posts

Looking through the documentation on IRIS about blacklisted sites, is there a place where those go? We have a forecaster who accidentally blacklisted a typically reliable site and doesn't remember which one it was. Is there a way to see a WFO's list of blacklisted/exclusion lists are? Thanks!

Hi Robert,

When a site is on the exclusion list, it will appear in the observation table as 'grayed out'. This is because individual elements are able to be excluded, not entire sites.

Thanks,
Matt

Thanks for the clarification. I see the variable turns Green in response and that it's easy to put back in variable by variable. I presume the "Remove these sites from IRIS" would be more permanent then?

Hi Robert,

Yes, when you 'Remove these sites from IRIS', those stations will no longer be associated with your office.

Thanks,
Matt
