Started as a side project to learn SwiftUI and to fill a need in my day to day work. Now it might be useful to others too.

RasterScope is a macOS app for viewing raster data quickly.
Opens NetCDF, GRD, GRIB and other GDAL backed files as heatmaps or filled contours with contour lines, vector field and point/line overlays.

November 2023 was another wet month in Southern England, and as we have come to expect, warmer than the 1981-2010 local average. However the final few days brought below average temperatures with light snow on the 30th which is very unusual here.
We also set our low pressure station record of 954.3 hPa on the 2nd as #StormCiarán passed through, one of 3 named storms affecting W. Europe during the month.
