In south central PA (Somerset) there was fairly heavy calling activity
between 10:30-12:30am. There was a fairly significat fallout during the
night early am hours of Fri/Sat here. A lot of those birds were still around
in decent numbers yesterday, and things were fairly quiet this am, so I
suspect a lot of the birds that fell out the last several days with the rain
here moved out between showers last night.

Best,
Mike

Re: [nfc-l] College of Dupage Radar

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
