Wanted to make a quick post to let you all know about some truly amazing placefiles my friend and chase partner, Brandon Vincent, has recently finished. These are hands down the best sfc ob placefiles out there and they are completely free! There are multiple iterations depending on exactly what you are looking for. Check out www.redteamwx.com/grlevelx.html for the complete list along with some superb color tables for GR2-3 or GREarth. Happy chasing!

Edit: we are having some issues with the radar location dependent placefiles not loading properly. Brandon is working on a fix. The state based versions are working fine.

After much gnashing of teeth on Brandon's part he has rewritten the code for the obs from the ground up to make them run much faster. The issue is completely fixed so please give these placefiles another try! Now all we need is some freaking weather!

I'm no programming expert, so I am confused by how I am supposed to use this page (http://www.redteamwx.com/grlevelx.html#metar) to get the surface obs placefiles I am looking for, for my GRLevel3. Any help would be appreciated!

Just as you would any other. Copy the URL that you want, and put it into the placefile manager on GR3.

I'm not sure Joey's sarcasm makes it through all the time. These are far and away the best placefiles for METAR reports available. And they're free (but I'm sure most users have chipped in a few bucks now and then...) It appears there is an issue with the KS mesonet file, hopefully that's been reported somewhere before people go off on a whiny rant.
