OCTANE<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Have knots abbreviated as \u201cKTS\u201d instead of \u201cKN\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Change direction of movement from to lettered degrees instead of a numerical value<\/span><\/p>\n

This product does help me become more aware, in realtime of the winds vertically. \u00a0However, not entirely sure how to adapt this into my forecasting routine yet.<\/span><\/p>\n

NUCAPS<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Great to see the better sampling\/readout of the data compared to what it was 2-3 years ago<\/span><\/p>\n

The parcel count is a great way to help me gauge the validity of the data (confidence in how accurate it is)<\/span><\/p>\n

Overlaying a NUCAPS forecast field with the parcel count allows me to sample what the field has and what the parcel count is so I can have more of less confidence in the data<\/span><\/p>\n

No less than six hours for operational needs. \u00a09 hours might be the perfect duration. \u00a0I usually don\u2019t use hourly data much beyond 9 hours due to my lack of confidence in the reliability of the data.<\/span><\/p>\n

Hourly data is very nice. \u00a0Half hour spacing is a bit too much data for that duration.
\n-Something to consider is could there be half hour spacing in the data for the first three hours? \u00a0However I don\u2019t know if that would be enough of a benefit to use.<\/span><\/p>\n

I would use the 700-500mb lapse rates, ML CAPE, temp and dew point, and parcel count most often.<\/span><\/p>\n

PHS<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Very easy to look at; very smooth data<\/span><\/p>\n

Didn\u2019t have much time to look at the data<\/span><\/p>\n

Lightningcast<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Noticed on a well defined supercell the lightning probability is not over 80% despite lightning ongoing. \u00a0Does the program cap at 75-80%?
\n-Have GLM ligthning data displayed too<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Otherwise this does help draw my eye to where lightning could occur in the near future.<\/p>\n

Prob Severe<\/strong><\/p>\n

Didn\u2019t have time to look at it much. Did notice the storm in eastern CWA had higher values for version 3 than for version 2<\/p>\n
