What software are you using to snap images? I believe the GRlevelX series does, and can also grab the world file associated with them. THEN you could import them in correct size over GIS data... such as State/counties... COOL!

I'm not sure how you are going about doing it (cut and paste or what?).

Well it's partially complete anyway...lol. Tired of messing with it for now.

That map needs to be expanded into Illinois. Come on, the Roanoke storm, and 4/20. Great events, just to name a few.

 

[Mike Hollingshead]

Have at it then...lol.

I'm working on a list of some of 2004's more impressive supercells but only in the central plains confined by SD, IA, CO/WY, KS, OK, n TX, sw MN. Can anyone add to these?

Mike - cool idea - very cool map.

I can see where this may be a colossal undertaking, though - too bad you can't get imagery for 5/29 and 8/26 ... those days had some great supe reflectivities.
