KR> weather forecast web site?

2008-10-12 Thread Mark Langford
NetHeads,

I'd be interested in good websites that show forecasts for weather across 
the country (or at least the Eastern half) that show a sequence of where the 
clouds and or rain are expected to be in 12, 24, 48 hours, etc.  I've seen 
one or two, but they're not very impressive, and was wondering if any of you 
guys knew of anything better.

I sort of "finished" my primer job today, and managed to mount my fiberglass 
spinner.  You may recall that last week I installed my new high dollar 
spinner and the thing vibrated at 1600 rpm.  I removed it and the vibration 
went away, so that would point directly to the spinner.  So I did something 
Troy Petteway told me he did years ago...use the "real" spinner as a mold to 
make another one.  It couldn't be more out of balance than this thing, so I 
tried it.  Today I installed it and there's no change  that I can detect in 
the usually smooth Corvair's vibration level at any rpm.  I figure I have 
about ten bucks in it, not counting the rather expensive "mold".

Trip planning tonight for a 7AM departure time to OSH...

Mark:

I use Intellicast and plug in MCI( Kansas City) for here in Burlington.
Thecoverage area on its Regional radar loop covers an area from the Red River
south of OK City north to MSP East to Western OH and west midway to Denver from
the Kansas border.

I would suggest perhaps plugging in Charlotte NC, Atlanta(ATL), Huntsville or
Nashville for your basic area and bookmark it.  Then book mark any other areas
you might need for places you frequent.  You  probably will not need more than 4
or 5 to cover the area east of the Mississippi and all you need to is plug in
relevant 3-letter airport codes for amajor airport for closer in details.--All
things you likely have at the ready for a flight plan anyway.

Really as a lot of  information accessible from a few sites

Mark:

We had light rain here all day today---0.15  inches but up to an inch in Quad
Cities (MLI). But it is rapidly clearing.  The system is headed SE and was the
2nd storm in 48 hours to do a number on St Louis.  They have 500,000 folks
without power per the news.  I would say the big question for you is how far SE
of (STL) it gets and how much of its punch it loses.  The Regional Radar loop on
the Intellicast site of choice will show the last 2-1/2 hours of a systems
progress in 15 min or 30 min steps which should be a useful predictor of its
progress.
