NUCAPS gridded data example

An example of NUCAPS gridded data over Texas. Convection was already underway at this time, as seen by the very high pixels in south OK and north TX. This field is 850-300mb RH. The dryline is evident, however the usefulness of this and other NUCAPS gridded data is questionable for operations because of the poor resolution. With so many other much higher resolution surface and gridded data sources available, I doubt I would be using these products much at all in operations.
