From 4520b9e4ba906fbf0937d5b806287908a23f3fd8 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Emi Griffith Date: Sun, 19 Jul 2026 21:25:13 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] Merge the Trace rain tier into Very Light (#212) MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit The rain-intensity scale had a Trace tier (below the 1st percentile of a place's rain days) sitting under Very Light — a sliver category that mostly showed 1% and crowded the distribution strip. Fold it into Very Light, which now bottoms out the scale at 0, so the lightest measurable rain reads as Very Light. - grading.py: RAIN_BANDS drops the Trace band; Very Light's floor goes 1 -> 0. The detail-view ladder derives from the table, so it follows automatically. - shared.js: SCALE_RAIN drops the Trace row; Very Light's range becomes "<10". Eight rain tiers now instead of nine; the strip shows one fewer column. The wet-1 colour token is kept (unreferenced by new gradings) so any day still cached with the old class renders until the derived store recomputes.
