What the algorithm is trying to detect

The best colorful sunsets usually happen when there is some cloud structure to catch light, but not so much active rain or overcast coverage that the horizon gets blocked. This version favors moderate cloud cover, good visibility, low rain during the target window, and a small amount of earlier rain as a possible color enhancer instead of a huge binary bonus.
