What's new (v7.6)
Pocket RAWS now has a Soil Intel gauge — bringing ground-level moisture and temperature data into the same fast-glance card layout you already use for fuel moisture, wind, and humidity.
What you get
• Soil Moisture (VWC) and Soil Temperature for each station, pulled directly from the RAWS soil probe network
• Up to three depths per station with a built-in depth picker — switch between shallow, mid, and deep readings with a tap
• Color-coded VWC bar spanning red (critically dry) → orange → yellow → green → blue (wet), tuned to the 0–50% volumetric range that matters for drought signal
• 24-hour trend charts in the drawer — overlay all three depths to spot drying trajectories, recovery failures, and depth divergence
Built for fireline judgment
• Drought-signal framing, not a fuel-moisture replacement. The drawer's wildfire context section makes the role of soil moisture explicit: it's a slow-changing antecedent indicator that complements — never replaces — RH, wind, 1/10-hr fuel moisture, and ERC/BI
• Operational interpretation built-in — read multi-depth divergence ("shallow recovering while deep stays low = surface masking underlying drought") and structural drying patterns directly in-app
• Suspect-reading detection — when one depth reads dramatically drier than its neighbors while soil temps match, Pocket RAWS flags it in yellow. Bad probe contact, rocky soil, and failing sensors get caught before they steer a decision
Stations without soil sensors
Not every RAWS has soil probes. Stations without sensors show a clean N/A placeholder — no broken gauges, no confusing zeros.
