Big news for one of the weather tools I use most frequently: SimuAWIPS will be upgraded to version 7.0 starting this weekend. It will mean a multi-day outage but the improvements are expected to be excellent (including easier screen captures). SimuAWIPS is an incredible service (and I couldn’t believe it was free so I made sure to donate to the server fundraiser when I signed up).

Thanks for sharing this. That does appear to be a really nice free service. May donate, even if I don’t use it.

You bet. I’m working on a page outlining all the tools I use to produce the blog and nowcast on identi.ca/Twitter, too — stay tuned for that.

Unfortunately it looks like there were some additional tech issues discovered during the upgrade, so it’s delayed again. I can’t imagine the monumental task it is to push what appears to be such a huge upgrade out.
