Using the WS's radar views to look at the storms moving over the Upper Midwest. The software did a splendid job with VIL, Reflectivity, and velocity. Thanks, Tim!!

I should add, that the DA WS pinpointed a velocity couplet signature near Warrens WI with great detail from the NWS La Crosse Radar site. A tornado was confirmed on the ground at the same time by human eye balls!

That's good to hear. I vastly prefer DA/WS for looking at couplets too, rather than using web images, as the pixels are larger and you can hold the cursor over them to read the exact velocity value. I used Digital Atmosphere's radar suite last month for guiding people around several tornadic storms in Kansas while running the Chase Hotline.
