Now that we have some active storms I'd appreciate if you guys (the users) let me know if you see any problems other than outside bandwidth (ie. image overlays from cimss.ssec.wisc.edu or radars etc). I think my bandwidth is holding up fine, and surprisingly enough I am working on getting the source code in shape to release to you guys here. I'm just adding proper databasing (via db4o) and cleanup where possible. I'm on the database kick now, and it seems to be working to my satisfaction, so I'll let you know.

When I do release the source code, the only thing you'll need to have to make it work fully are a copy of visual studio which is a free download for the standard edition(or if someone wants to port it to monodevelop or eclipse), an internet connection to retrieve the raw data as the program runs, and a hosting account to upload the kml output to if you want to publish it.

I'm sure once you guys have the ability to mod the program yourselves(and the TIME!!!), then all the modifications we've batted around will pop up. (Hint BK DeLong
