dendrite Posted September 25, 2011 Share Posted September 25, 2011 Folks, Cory has been working on converting our WRF model over to GrADS from NCL and we hope to have the model running again soon on the site. We will be offering custom BUFKIT time-height and meteogram images on a request basis for all members. The images will look similar to this minus most of the metric units. For those who want to be added, please provide us with: 1. Your city, state of residence (or wherever you want) 2. Your latitude and longitude in decimal degrees (let's go 3 decimal places for now) If you don't know your latitude or longitude, a quick and easy way to find it is to zoom into your location on Google maps, right-click on your exact location, and then click "What's here?" Your latitude and longitude should show up near the top of the page. All of us in the US will have a positive latitude and negative longitude since we are in the northern and western hemispheres, respectively. Let's keep this to one request per member and keep this thread requests-only so that everyone's information will be easier to sift through. If you have any questions regarding this feel free to PM me or ask them away in the other WRF thread. Requests for any specific maps should be made in that thread as well. Thanks!

dendrite Posted September 25, 2011 Author Share Posted September 25, 2011 Could I possibly have 2 locations? 41.466 N, 87.042 W for school and 40.139 N, 74.944 W for home? Thanks. For now I'm going to ask that everyone chooses just 1. Otherwise I'd have to make the exception for all members, and I'm not sure how many of the 6-7k current members will want to be involved. Another FYI, we will be going out 2 decimal places (like the image suggests), but I made everyone post thousandths and I'd do the rounding myself.

Mallow Posted September 25, 2011 Share Posted September 25, 2011 The domain probably still won't include the west, huh? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cory Posted September 25, 2011 Share Posted September 25, 2011 The domain probably still won't include the west, huh? It will eventually. I'm still waiting on a developer fix for the computer clustering problem. It'll likely start out running only east of the Rockies, then when I get the problem fixed it will include the whole U.S. and I can do regional zooming.
