I have hi-res dual-pol and precip, vil, etc data too. Not sure what everyone else has since I got the app years ago. Back then it was a one time $10 fee. I'm on the Pro Tier one (9.99 a year). It's basically Level III data plus lightning and dual-pane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weatherwiz Posted September 5, 2019 Author Share Posted September 5, 2019 The radar in NC is crwzy...these convective bands get within like 10 miles of the coast and start rotating like crazy. Some of these couplets are quite legit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go to your menu; top left (3 bars) then go to radars and locations.. go to locations tap, upper right. At the bottom go to add a location. You can put exact location in, street number, etc. save and it will show it on the radar. Then go back in and you can edit it to show only a symbol or a short name. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

powderfreak Posted September 5, 2019 Share Posted September 5, 2019 I gotta get this radar now, ha. Thanks guys. As long as I can get the 2.5 degree scan out of BTV on radarscope, as that’s the first level that really “sees” over the Spine to my area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

powderfreak Posted September 5, 2019 Share Posted September 5, 2019 20 hours ago, OceanStWx said: For the vast majority of uses, I think so. You get the four lowest elevation scans, which is more than enough for a typical user. If you want to interrogate thunderstorms down to the exact hail size it's definitely not enough scans, but if you were on a hike or in the park and wanted to stay clear of the worst stuff it's fine for that. But if you are not looking mobile, Scoots' right, it's GR hands down. You can see everything we can see in the WFO. GR2 gets you level II base data (reflectivity, velocity, dual-pol), GR3 would get you the lowest four scans of those plus storm total precip stuff. Damn, just downloaded RadarScope... bummed I can’t see the other “tilts”. The lowest level does jack shit out of the BTV radar except look north and south in the narrow valley. Bummer. Might not get much use for $10 ha. Composite radar at least is there. I want 1.5 and 2.5 degree scans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It says Tilt 1 or whatever, but you only see the options to change to the other tilts when you try to change the radar product, you tap tilt one and then all four tilts will come up offering a choice. Not the best UI, it's true, but it suffices for 10 bucks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom12309 Posted September 6, 2019 Share Posted September 6, 2019 Pine tree on the other side of my neighbors yard got the top 50 feet blown off it by CG as the first batch just got to us. I was walking back upstairs to the office with a cup of coffee and it was so loud I almost flinched the coffee on myself. The one cat that is deaf as a post woke up from a nap on the couch and peered out the window to see what was going on. 20190904_132445 by Tom Ambros, on Flickr 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
