Weathernerds provides weather data in a flexible, practical interface. This site is designed to give creativity and control
to the forecaster so that imagery is weather feature-based rather than relying on predefined geographic maps. Weather models
available on the site include the ECMWF, GEM, GFS, HRRR, ICON, NAM, HWRF, HMON, HAFS-A/B, and RAP. The interface allows users to
create point soundings, cross sections, multiple field overlays, etc. Satellite data from GOES 16, GOES 18, and Himawari
also are provided in an interface that allows users to zoom in anywhere. During hurricane season, the TC Forecast Guidance
section provides ensemble forecasts from the GFS and ECMWF. This guidance is useful for analyzing the range of possibilities
for TC track and intensity in the long-range portion of the forecast. Finally, WSR-88D Level 2 base radar reflectivity and
velocity are provided in a zoomable interface.
