That's what we have on all the computers here in the radio station. The top version is actually a pretty cool program.

It has lots of features, including my personal favorite, storm tracks. The zoom isn't nothing to yell about, but it does work in a pinch.

I just installed it in 2 comps. (bought 2 keys) Win XP1 and XP2 Both work equally well. It will now take the place of 2 different sites that I have using. It takes my vote.

I run storm preditor and love it. What I like most is that the radar is updated every 4 minutes, which inturn returns nice radar animations.

Cheers

I believe some other programs do this as well, baring there is threatening weather near the radar. I use Weather Tap and have seen the times of the radar updates from 6 down to 4 minutes when there is bad weather in the area. Just for reference.....

It depends what mode the radar is running in... 4.1 minutes, 5 minutes, 6 minute and 10 minutes are the options picked by the radar operator.

Hands down THE best radar software on the market. Nothing compares, GR2AE has literally changed the way we handle severe weather.

check out GR weather radar, personally I find GR2Analyst Edition better than what the TV stations have here, there is weather software for anyone's taste from this company...

Hi all. What are the main differences between Level 2 & Level 3 ?? I can't seem to find it, and I've heard BOTH are very good programs.

Gibson Ridge seems to be the hottest thing here in Central Texas. All our weather spotters use GR. I use WeatherTap and have for several years but i'm gonna be switching over to GR soon.

Just my two cents...
