Reflection

Daily Summary So Far — this cycle will be validated at the next planning cycle.

Hypothesis

Testing: Test whether avoiding midnight/sunset resource taper until measured VPD recovery reduces guardrail reshaping and VPD-high alerts on the second severe hot-dry day. Expected outcome: Dew risk remains 0h; no water-budget clipping; VPD-high alerts improve versus 16.8h prior day if physics allows, with fewer guardrail-held events because requested values are band-coupled.
