spotter network/radar online?

[Scott Bell]

Is there a website that displays spotternetwork locations superimposed over radar data? It doesn't need to be GR quality, but I get the question off and on about this from non-chasers that don't have GR Level software.

There is a map on Spotter Network's website that shows the positions of chasers, but I don't think it does radar on the google map.

Only suggestion I could think of Scott would be to use the web publishing function of GRLevel and upload it to a website. The only problem with this would be you would have to be able to change radar sites remotely.

Hit the Nexrad button in the top right for radar... ;-)

Yep, Nexrad button on top right of spotternetwork google map... You could do it all in Google Earth too with the ridge radar data.

Or you could also do it with weathertap radar data on Google Earth

There's the 'antcam' that shows the locations of the spotternetwork placefiles on top of a regional GR3 image. You can't display who each of the SN icons are, but if it for non-chasers they likely won't care who the individuals are. It'll show them where all the chasers are however...

Weathertap offers spotternet data?

Thanks! I somehow missed the nexrad button on the Spotter Network page.

Not too sure if it'll work, but can someone try this thing I made?

They could if they wanted to. But nobody has asked me.

 

[J Kinkaid]

You can use weathertap data on google Earth with Spotternet data

Another vote for Google Earth for this scenario.

Another source for radar and other weather goodies is at http://www.guiweather.com/kml.html ; combine this with the SpotterNetwork plugin and you have a fairly decent viewer for armchair use.

WeatherTap opened a dialog with the SpotterNetwork this morning. More news to come in the future I hope.
