Figured I would post a topic with useful links to model guidance. Feel free to post any links you may find as well.

I understand that it's not so user-friendly, but I'll gladly help anyone with questions as I've used that site for eight years.  Don't forget the other links mentioned above, too.

Its a really cool program. Isn't AWIPS the program the NWS uses?

Yes, that's correct, but the AWIPS system has been upgraded since that simulation was released.  There's far more tools that I'm able to use to look up weather data than what you all see in this simulation, but it still gives you an idea. :yes:

Does this model accurately predict radar enough to rely on it? http://www.emc.ncep.noaa.gov/mmb/mpyle/cent4km/conus/00/

I wouldn't hold myself to it.  That model can make some very realistic radar simulations, but the timing and placement can still be considerably off from reality.  It's better to use for alerting you of what kind of convective activity may be expected.

Long Island, August-September 2012 tornadoes, Hurricane Sandy, Blizzard of 2013, how many places on Earth do you know can get all 3 of those events within a 6 month period?
