Aggregating disparate government feeds with completely out-of-phase polling schedules into a unified state machine is notoriously painful. I am curious how your Go service handles the rate limits of the NWS API, which historically drops connections right when usage spikes during actual emergencies. If you ever expose this via webhooks, it would make an incredible backend for building localized mobile push notifications where standard cell-broadcast alerts are too broad or slow.
Honestly, not robustly enough yet. I've already been hitting timeouts on NWS gridpoint forecasts.
Right now some weather failures don't stop the rest of the assessment loop. Successful fetches get persisted so the system builds historical weather context over time.
The webhook idea is interesting. The monitoring loop is already separated from the web layer, so publishing to external consumers would be a natural extension.
