I wouldn't be as worried with the board as I would be as ECMWF complaining to your employer. I'm sure the agreement that your company has with ECMWF has a clause in it about the data not being reproduced even if the graphics are being made by your own system... it is their data afterall.

Thickness and RH data is made available to the public though...he just makes them look better with WSI graphics. The qpf stuff is the type of data that we'd want to avoid.

So it is ok to post WU screen captures of Euro stuff? Or no...

Not that I would post any of it. I do appreciate when you more knowledgable folks analyze them...

I can't wait for the first winter threat

As long as wunderground images are free to the public, I don't see any problem with posting them here. If they become pay, then we'd have to stop that.

I asked and it seemed to be ok.

Oh cool! That's awesome. ECMWF is so bizarre I just wanted to make sure you didn't get in trouble.

They seem to be a bit more easygoing lately. They used to be following our threads like hawks on Eastern when we were briefly offering the Euro MDA maps. In the last year or 2 they've made some of their ens data public as well as d8 through 10. Now it seems most of the affordable image sites for the hobbyists provide QPF, 2m temps, etc as well. I think we've had a few ECMWF ISPs here, but nothing like in years past.

Apparently,after reading some stuff, wunderground is paying about 1/2 million for that but for a site that makes 15k a day, chump change

I noticed the QPF on wunderground doesn't always completely agree with what I see on WSI. Part of it is the 3 hr time interval, but taking that into account..it seems more generous at times on wunderground.

Maybe they use a weenie algorithm. It gives them more hits.

Here's Miser and Pickles, enjoying the splendor of leaf peeping season in New England. I believe this is in Vermont.

And what better way to cap off a day of peeping than to go home, rake a pile of your own and dive right in? Pure joy.

:lmao: :lmao: I think there are many of us who are glad you don't have pictures of us. :)
