Four panels of public data, drawn when the page loads. Your browser asks each source's own API for the numbers, so they are as fresh as the source: the Treasury publishes once a business day, the bikes, the rivers and the earthquakes every few minutes. The asteroid and fireball figures come from NASA once a night; nothing else is stored here, and every chart has a table under it.

Portland

The weather, the air, the rivers, the bikes and the ground under the city, right now.

The Willamette runs backwards flow at the Morrison Bridge, every 15 minutes for three days. Portland is about 100 river miles from the ocean, and the tide still reaches it, pushing the river back upstream

Every BIKETOWN bike, right now no map underneath: the bikes draw the city

Mountains

The Cascade volcanoes, from Baker to Crater Lake, and a closer look at Mount Hood: what the ground under it is doing, where it is freezing, and how much snow is on it.

Sky

What is passing overhead and what is burning below: asteroids, fireballs and the solar wind, and the fires, storms and ice that NASA is watching from orbit.
