Super interesting thing to pursue. Will be neat to see where you go with this.
Small nit: don't name incidents until you have the official name. It could cause confusion once it is named.
Instead, something like "New detection near Colusa" or "New incident 10 mi NW of Colusa".
Good call. The system does try to match to official reporting and update when it finds one, but the working names in the meantime could definitely cause confusion.
Probably another case where that should be deterministic instead of model-generated. Thanks.
