I really like this creation of yours! Thanks again.
I am one of those users who can't get the KMZ to work. All I get is a heading with your name on it, no subfolders just like you said you've seen. Any suggestions for getting a better client? I subscribed to GE Plus but no luck. I would really like to comply and help cut down the bandwidth onslaught.
Thanks for all your efforts.

hwwtdw,
Yeah, I still haven't had time to fully investigate why the kmz doesn't work for some clients, but I should have time this weekend. I just appreciate that you gave it a try at least, that's all I can ask for now. My bandwidth should be ok for the time being, and probably will after the hurricane season is over....and maybe I'll figure it out this weekend. I'll keep y'all posted.
Also, I had a loooong day today and saw that my app had crashed at some point during the day today, so I apologize if that was an annoyance for some of you....I usually keep a fairly close eye on it during the day. It's one of those great

Well, I am the support team, so that doesn't help me very much Mr. Microsoft. Hopefully we'll have some nice storms to watch in the coming week.....TD 10 looks more promising now.

Would it be possible to add or replace some of the hurricane models that are displayed?
I would sure like to see the UKMET, GFS, and GFDL model runs, and I wouldn't care if I never saw the A98E model ever again since it has such a terrible time forecasting tropical weather systems.
Your dynamic layer is such an awesome tool this time of year. Fantastic.

Hey Cape,
Anything's possible. It's just a matter of finding a nice source of that data. One of the wunderground meteorologists gave me some links for those other models, but they weren't in the same format as the ones I currently use. I need to spend a good day or 2 really cleaning up the code, and possibly adding some new stuff, but I've been working on a new pet project recently. The ones I have currently included are the official NHC ones that they make public via their FTP. I was surprised to see that getting access to some of this data was restricted and/or a pay service. I'll definitely look into the UKMET one in the next couple of days (probably not soon enough for katrina though) because even I am frustrated that it's not currently included. Just keep your fingers crossed that I can find the data in a reliable format.

Thanks, my friend. You're doing a service with your efforts that can't be underestimated. Your layer can and will save lives and as more Americans discover Google Earth, the impact can only increase.

Could you please publish a KMZ containing only the model forecasts and not including the SST, Satellite Images or Analysis? I'd really appreciate it.

All you have to do is de-select the features you don't want. It works fine. By the way, this is an amazing addition to GE. Great work!

Anyone else having issues loading the Sat images from TheSHADOW's folder of this Network Link? They just seem to keep saying "loading". I've tried refreshing a few times but I don't want to completely overload the source.
Also looks like the GIF file from wisc.edu for Analysis > Mid Upper WV & IR Winds is giving intermittant load errors.
Is there alternative data sources to account for network overload?

Unfortuantely.....those are THE premier sources for that data. Their servers are just being overloaded. There's not much I can do at this time...sorry. I've still got family in New Orleans that I'm trying to get information on as they will not be leaving. With that in mind, I will not be making any updates to this link during this storm. I will make sure that it stays up though.
