Discover Summary

Overall: ACTIVE

Active scope: restricted -> restricted

Lookback requested: 48h

Lookbacks attempted: 48

Best lookback used: 48h

Profit focus: hail + tornado

Results:

- Restricted (48h): ACTIVE (hail=8, tornado=2, wind_meas=1, wind_unk=0)

- US: not run

Why this state: Top state: IN (score 550.0; hail=0, tornado=0, wind_meas=0, wind_unk=0)

Suggested next step: python run_daily.py --mode scout --states IN --lookback-hours 48 --spc-source filtered

Next steps4

Prioritize hail/tornado signals for immediate scout follow-up.
Scout the top state(s) with lookback-hours to preserve robust timing boundaries.
states=IN • lookback=48h
```
python run_daily.py --mode scout --states IN --lookback-hours 48 --spc-source filtered
```
Use raw SPC to catch additional hail/tornado reports.
Rerun scout with raw SPC source for fuller hail/tornado coverage.
states=IN • lookback=48h
```
python run_daily.py --mode scout --states IN --lookback-hours 48 --spc-source raw
```
Validate national context for the same day.
Run date-search for the best storm day.
states=US • lookback=48h
```
python run_daily.py --mode date-search --date 2026-02-18
```

tornado reports=2; hail >= 1.25in reports=8; wind >= 50mph reports=1
