Weather.gov/radar_tab.php is the best in my opinion. No hi res yet. However 
since I work for NWS I have access to the hi res radar data if needed via 
archive.

Hi again all,
This is likely to be old hat for many, but one of the nice looking
sites for accessing radar data is:
http://weather.cod.edu/analysis/analysis.radar.html.  Everyone has
their own favorites, and there are many, but I think this one is
particularly good. . .Whether they will provide Terminal Doppler data
and newer higher res. Level II NEXRAD remains to be seen.  Regardless,
particularly nice are several different scale options for viewing
radar, and the ability to search a number of the surface and upper air
data as well as forecast models. . .

Best,
AF

Hi all,
This is as much a test as it is a message. . .

Just a FYI - tonight and tomorrow night will presumably provide
additional opportunities to sample this "cool (no irony intended)"
mesoscale weather pattern.  Large numbers of birds have arrived across
the NE and adjacent regions, and some of the past few nights have had
great flights.  If you can record, get those mics out. . .

Best,
AF

[nfc-l] ADMIN: Welcome to NFC-L!

2009-04-27 Thread Chris Tessaglia-Hymes
This message is for those of you whose email addresses were recently 
added to NFC-L, at the recommendation of Andrew Farnsworth:

Welcome to NFC-L!

NFC-L is an email list (the List) focused on the discussion of the
night flight calls of migratory birds.

The primary purpose of the List is to provide an effective
electronic forum for experienced birders to discuss the
identification of night flight calls of migratory birds, exchange
ideas about recording equipment design and setup, disseminate
information about active or predicted night flights in your area,
and to better understand weather and RADAR data as they relate to
patterns of nocturnal bird migration.

Initially, attachments containing limited-sized sound files,
photographs, frame-grabs, or other documents to help further the
discussion and shared knowledge of nocturnal bird migration will be
acceptable and are encouraged. Be advised that attachments can also
serve as a mode for spreading infectious computer viruses. Use
caution when opening any attachment.

Please take a moment to review the Welcome and Configuration
 and the Information
and Rules  pages for the
List.

Please also realize that the List is in its infancy. The purpose of
the List may morph over time, as well as the guidelines and rules
for use. The List will always have the primary focus of flight calls
(both nocturnal and diurnal) of migratory birds.

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to ask me.

Thanks and good night-listening!

Currently, the following email addresses have been added to the list, 
just so you know who will be reading or contributing posts:

If you think there are additional persons potentially interested in or 
who should be included on the list, please email me, or forward the 
NFC_WELCOME link below. The list is restricted for the time-being, in 
that each membership requires manual approval by me. Posting is not 
moderated.

Any questions, please do not hesitate to email me, off-list.

Thanks!

Sincerely,
Chris T-H
