Hour by hour
Hours are track time (EST). Track temperature is an estimate. DA is density altitude.
The racer numbers
Computed from the forecast air temperature, dew point and station pressure (NWS formulas; the correction factor by SAE J1349 and the older 60 °F STD standard). Track temperature is estimated from sun, wind and the surface; it is not a sensor reading. How these are figured.

Flags judge the racing hours: 9 am to 10 pm at the track for a drag strip. National Weather Service alerts raise them. Days marked partial are at the edge of the forecast. How the flags work

Every hour from the forecast, the same arithmetic as the pit box above (NWS density-altitude formula; track temperature is an estimate). Hours are track time.
Plan the whole week at Muncie
Pit box, all week
Every forecast hour for the next seven days at Muncie: density altitude, air density, grains, track temp and more, with a CSV for the tuning laptop.
Do the models agree?
ECMWF, GFS and ICON side by side for the next three racing days, so you know when the forecast is shaky.
Next 6 hours of rain
Rain in 15-minute steps for the next six hours at your tracks, refreshed every hour.
Alerts for your tracks
An email the morning a red or yellow flag is due at Muncie, and a heads-up three days out.
