you're not using a client that supports colored tables and have tried

do... we recommend switching to Netscape 3.0 or Microsoft Internet

Archived Case Study Data
memorable weather events
[Image: main menu image for case studies (62K)]
Welcome to the WW2010 Archives.
The first stage of development includes a growing library of data
and products
from memorable weather events. Each case contains archived data:
satellite images, surface images, NEXRAD (when available), plus some
additional explanatory resources to aid with the interpretation of the
weather images.
Key words of archive pages are linked to explanatory helper sections that
are useful not only for interpreting the images, but also for understanding
important topics in meteorology. For this first edition, only the case studies
are available, however, as the current weather products come online, this will
be the source for accessing archived images from 1 hour old up to six weeks
old for each and every product.
