Using GR Level 2

[Chris Sokol]

OK..I just jumped onto the bandwagon and installed GRLevel3. Has anybody used this on a laptop with a cell connection? If so, is it functional this way, or should I continue to use Weathertap?

Yes Chris....works fine for cell connections. I believe GR will use any connection it finds to retrieve data. Also, since it dls data files rather than images, the dls are faily quick. When it reaches the time for refresh, if you're not connected it will keep trying every 20 seconds till you connect again. I am still hopeful some sort of DL now feature will be added, but as is, it works fine.

Ok, thanks to all those that helped me out (esp. Tyler). It is now working for me, except for the fact that the NCDC website is now out of service. Before then I was able to download and untar some files...downside is that a 100 MB TAR file is an 11 hour download!

Got some radar shots of a supercell I observed on May 23, 2004:
