If you’ve used the F5 Data RUC maps on my Storm Chasing page, then you’ll be pleased to know that, after a couple of days being unavailable, the maps are once again up, with some significant changes that I think you’ll like.
My initial intention when I took the maps down was to install RUC loops in their place, but I hit a snag. It’s just a temporary one, but in the meantime, I’ve decided that instead of reinstalling the original RUC maps, I’d switch to the new mesoanalysis maps that F5 has recently added to its suite of forecasting tools. I like them well enough that I may not even bother with the RUC loops. You can find plenty of sources for RUC, but not for these, so the mesoanalysis maps should give you a different and useful resource. Besides being proprietary to F5 Data in themselves, they include a couple of trademark indices that Andy Revering has formulated for capping and sigtors.
Check them out and let me know what you think. I welcome your comments.
