Surface data

• Southeast Regional Surface image from UCAR
• Various surface maps from CAPS
• Meteorgrams Over 1000 sites in the US.
• HPC short range weather depiction Out to 48 hours
• HPC medium range forecast From 3 to 5 days

Near Real-time Derived Data

• CAPS "Using the Advanced Regional Prediction System (ARPS), CAPS produces forecasts and hourly analyses each day year-round" Awesome page with CAPE/LI's, moisture convergence, you name it for the SE states. My absolute favorite severe weather link, next to SPC, that is :)
  
• RUCII Model Composite Map Page Java-script driven page from SPC. Similar to CAPS in that it has hourly RUC derived parameters. Not bad, but not as good as CAPS and runs a little behind.

Text Products

• State by State weather from UC Davis
• Regional Forecasts
• Regional Observations
• SC data from IWIN
• NC text data from IWIN
• TN data from IWIN
• South Carolina Products -- Maintained by the Southern Region of the National Weather Service -- Great server.

Watches, Warnings and Advisories

• Latest Warnings/LSRs/Statements from UC Davis
• IWIN warnings page
• Most recent SVR warnings for WFO GSP
• Map showing recent local storm reports -- color coded. Quite neat.

Hydrologic Products

• Hydrometeorological Prediction Center Great information here. QPF forecasts and model discussions.

Numerical Models

• Eta
  • NOTE: Details on 12 km Eta
  • RUCII from FSL
  • Eta from UCAR
  • Eta site from UNISYS
  • P-type for the ETA model
  • 84 hour experimental Eta - neat!
• AVN
  • Aviation from U of Wisconsin
  • Aviation site from UNISYS
• MRF
  • MRF from Grads - very nice
  • MRF from U of Wisconsin
• ECMWF
  • ECMWF at OSU
• Canadian
  • Canadian GEM - Environment Canada
• MM5
  • National MM5 data
• Other Links
  • Aviation Weather Diagnostics -- Page that verifies different numerical models against one another.
  • An ingredients based approach to forecasting winter pcpn -- A great page with many interesting diagnostics for detemining the potential for snow, sleet and freezing rain.
    • An explanation of the feilds (not exactly light reading)
    • Main page from this site (uses frames)
• Experimental forecast Tropical Cyclone Genesis Potential Fields -- Interesting page that has data on the GFDL/NOGAPS/CMC/UKMET/ECMWF/AVN models. Very good for tracking tropical weather.

Model Output Statistics

• NGM MOS (aka RAFS)
• AVN MOS
• MRF MOS
• LAMP data
• Graphical Output of Ensemble Model Means -- Almost better than sliced bread.

Medium/Extended Rage Forecasts

• D+8 Tools Lots of neat extended range forecast tools form CPC. NOTE: Lots of graphics -- high bandwidth connection recommended!

Climatology

• Long Lead seasonal outlooks

Tornadoes/Chase Page

• May, 2001 Chase Vacation
• The April 3-4 1974 Super Tornado Outbreak
• May 3, 1999 Torando Outbreak in OK and KS
  • CMISS page on the event Great Satellite Images
  • NWSFO Norman Page on the event These guys did an awesome job!
  • Raw data Tons of data from the May, 3 1999 Southern Plains Tornado Outbreak. Mostly undecoded.

Interesting links

• Space Weather
• Amazing shot of lightning hitting a plane

Data of interest to meteorologists

• Bust Analysis of a forecast "Northwest Flow Snow Event" which did not verify (circa Nov 2-3, 2000).
• BUFR data Model point soundings.
• Sites BUFR data are run for With WMO ID's
• Archived BUFR data -- SOO/STRC data archive (FTP site), also features archived Eta grids (32 Km Eta 221 tile dataset). You cannot access the ftp site outside of NOAA. Note, the address is ftp://soosac.comet.ucar.edu data/archive.
• All about the ETA model
• Where to find archived weather data.
• Main AWIPS page The National Weather Service's new system!

Weather in Japan! (yeah, I'm weird)
