Hi all.
I thought I would post this little trick for archiving radar and Lightning tracker images, useful for chasers who need radar archived while chasing.
 
Firstly Get OPERA, a free web browser, avail at www.opera.com they have V7.0 beta 1 available but I recommend getting V6 as beta versions always have bugs. Version 6 is here: ftp://ftp.planetmirror.com/pub/opera/win/605/ en/ Java version comes with Java runtime, and is ~11meg, Standard doesn’t have java and is ~3.5meg.
For BoM radar you don’t need java, but for WZ animators you do, but more on WZ and animators shortly.
 
Once installed, open opera and go to file/preferences (or Alt+P)
Look toward the bottom of the left menu for “History and Cache” and select it.
In the top right hand corner of the right side you will see “Disk Cache”.
This is where you can set the amount of disk space the cache will take up. I have it set on 20000kb (or 200meg) and all but “empty on exit” ticked. Have a look at other options here and set them to your desire.
 
Once adjusted open your radar loop/s from the BoM and opera allows multiple pages within the browser interface so you can basically open all radars if you like.
 
The radars update and opera saves every image in the directory c:/program files/opera/cache4/
This is the directory to go to when retrieving the images. Now opera saves them as a really weird name so the next thing you will need is a directory viewer that includes “image properties” Windows explorer doesn’t have it so I recommend ACDSee, available from here: http://www.acdsystems.com/ this has image properties functions.
 
Now for getting the files, the easiest way is using the image properties look for files that are 524*564*64 gif files. If you click the image properties column header in ACDSee it will sort them out for you, select all the radar files and move them to your desired directory.
 
Now the stupid naming is crazy so you can either rename them your self or leave them, the way you can tell the date/time of the images is the “last modified” details.
 
That’s all I can think of regarding BoM Radar.
Now to the weatherzone. Its radar auto updates as well, but because the file name is the same every time, it just re-saves every image over the last one, or so it seems to me. I’ve always had trouble with archiving WZ radar and Lighting trackers. Perhaps you can do it with a Download client like get right, set it to download every ten minutes and rename the files but I am unsure of this.
The only time WZ images save individually is from the animators but the problem here is the Background is a sperate image, and the radar echo’s are a PNG file that has transparent elements in it, I have been unable thus far to make an animation work with the using the images and background.
 
The only Lighting tracker that i'm sure works is this one http://www.northpower.com.au/ss/s_tracker.html and this animation from Tuesday is a result of archiving the files: www.canberra-wx.com/tempfiles/anim-st-26nov.gif
Also Energex’s storm tracker seems to archive as well, I don’t use it that much tho, so I can’t say for sure (Energex: http://www.energex.com.au/community/lightning_tracker/asp/lightningtracker.asp )
 
If you have any questions then just ask me.
 
 

Cheers

I sent an unsub to the Majordomo with a CC to the offended party (and, I suspect, a net-newbie)
Hopefully, the "Major" will understand (I changed my reply-to) or failing that, JFHx6 will be able to workout what needs to be done from their end.
 
I should have pointed out that a sub request would have been made in the first place, but I think the gist would have been lost :)

HI All.
 
As soon as this email came through.. i unsubscribed him straight away. which was at 1.29pm .. This is why it would show he is not a member.
 
I also sent an email to him directly, asking why the hell he subscribed in the first place..
 
So i dare say, he wont be getting any of these emails..
 
Farewell to him

The site may not be intuitive to those who aren't familiar with satellite orbits, so I've written some simple instructions -- check the Weather Site News on the main page at http://australianweathernews.com. You really must try at least one of the 250m images; they're clear enough to be able to pick out urban area detail, so the detail in cloud structures is phenomenal! A nice image to whet the appetite is the 00.55 Terra/MODIS image for today 1 December, which shows most of South Australia cloud free, but some nice patterns in the clouds to the south. As there is a full archive back to April 2001, you can happily while away an evening looking for images of Australia. Also, check out the Gallery page, and type "Australia" into the search engine. Most of the images are of bushfires, but that's because the prime purpose of the site is fire detection and monitoring.

The plane was travelling steady and smooth without the slightest hint of turbulence when he made the announcement. The sun was streaming down and the clouds were way down below near the sea surface. We were flying at 38000 feet. Then about two minutes after the announcement there was some quite rough turbulence like when one is flying through a thunderstorm but still there was no sign of cloud anywhere near the aeroplane. We were flying at 880 km/h so I estimated each patch of turbulence to be 30 - 50 km followed by 30 - 50 km of still air followed by more turbulence. After a few patches like this, the captain turned off the seat belt sign about 20 seconds before running out of the last patch of turbulence. The rest of the flight was uneventful. My question is, what was causing the turbulence in clear air? And what could the captain see to alert him that turbulence was going to be straight ahead of us before we actually reached it? And how did he know that the turbulence was going to end before we actually flew out of it? Has anyone any ideas?

I didn't forecast for the area you mentioned so I am only inferring what happened from you comments. Short answer to your question: Excellent forecast combined with a very experienced captain resulted in no one getting injured. Clear air turb (CAT) probably occur more often than people realise but aviation industry plan around these areas to keep incidents to a minimal. Sometimes CAT areas are very hard to forecast, as you can't see them (kind of like a black hole - you have to infer from stuff happening around it). Many reasons for CAT areas. Common ones are - jet with a strong anticyclonic curvature, when a lower jet undercut a higher one, when there is a sharp upper trough, when flow diverge, etc (you get my drift). In the tropics, sometimes it appears that planes experience CAT because they are flying well above the cloud. However, most of the time, the turb is actually due to CBs!!! (Jets tend to occur further away from the deep tropics due to lack to temp gradient. Hence CAT due to jets don't really occur in the tropics). With right conditions, CB updrafts can grow very tall (>45kft) in very short time. Fast growing CBs below can cause planes to experience turb even though they are well above the clouds. Had a quick look at both the Washington & Bracknell forecasts (They look after Nthn Hem). There was no CAT forecast for the area for either of them. I also checked the winds and noted that they were pretty weak (<60kt). However, both Bracknell & Washington had areas of CBs in the area you mentioned. My guess is that you experienced CAT (turb) due to CBs. (Not sure of exact time of your flight but max CB activities is ~12z) As David mentioned, radar would have alerted the captain to what was happening and he was skilful enough to pinpoint when turb was about to start and end. Also mentioned by Peter, reports by other planes or talking to the Air Traffic Controllers would have given the captain the heads up. Hope this helps, Tuan (Melb) ----- Original Message ----- From: "Phil Smith" To: Sent: Sunday, December 01, 2002 11:18 PM Subject: aus-wx: Air turbulence with no cloud? > Today I flew back from Kuala Lumpur to Hong Kong and while we were about > 1700 km away - somewhere SE of Ho Chi Min City - over the South China > Sea, the captain announced that everybody should return to their seats as > soon as possible and make sure their seat belts were securely fastened. > The plane was travelling steady and smooth without the slightest hint of > turbulence when he made the announcement.

First today, and catching me somewhat by surprise, looks like it could get rather thundery over the east half/two thirds of Victoria. It is not easy picking the line of the trough which sits over Victoria, but one suspects the area near and east of the trough line will probably be the focus for much of the storm activity. Interestingly, the pressure in recent hours has been falling through central Victoria but rising or steady to the west and east, suggesting the trough is currently deepening down through central parts. At the same time, for those further north, the strong upper trough from the bight has linked up very nicely with moisture associated with the low and convection near Timor, with plenty of storms through the centre etc. Further out, Victoria and Tasmania could get a significant summer cold outbreak on Wednesday/Thursday. GASP, NOGAPS and UK models are all going for a good SW flow (somewhat cyclonic) with thickness values below 540 reaching into southern Victoria. Such a set up would see heavy squally showers in the south, with a good chance of cold air thunderstorms and small hail (also snow down to ~1000m in the south). And then... for the west the moisture currently streaming inland will continue to build, and the passage of the upper trough around mid week and the establishment of general north to northeast flow could well form the ingredients for a very thundery period across much of the NT and Western Australia. At very long range watch out for a possible linkage of this moisture into the next front/mid latitude trough around Saturday for the southeast.

Had several lightning strikes today that have started fires in the area and with very little rainfall is a bit scary. At approx 4pm while at Springhurst on my school bus a strike went to ground at/on the SW edge of the Chiltern forest and appeared to be burning fairly well as we got a little closer. Strong smell of smoke while in the Chiltern area.
Point 2 mm scored here up to now (5.25pm).

Popped out with the digital camera the school bought (Kodak DC5000) and snapped a depressingly low-topped Cb, which seemed to be responsible. The trough line seemed to be further east of me as the day wore on...alas..anda check of the lightning tracker confirmed it getting nastier way east. No rain but a thunderday nonetheless!!!

Please excuse my posting if this is a bit off topic. I am in need to buy a weather station and have found plenty outside Australia but not a huge variety (web sites that is) of info. I did find one company in Sydney selling Pete Bros stuff but it was around $400 on top of the price out of the states even after money conversion. I actually need 2. I have however built one since I had access to a lathe etc. this one is remote to my location and transmits data back via radio so it doesn't have to have an interface but I am interested if there are any out there with no inteface but able to get data out of say with a serial connection. and the second is for my main office. I need to measure the usual temp (only has to be outside, inside is a bonus), humidity, barometric pressure, rain and how heavy if possible, wind direction and speed and thats about it. I would like a display with this one and the ability to store some info if my computer is offline but normally to be hooked up to my computer and sending the data to it. I write software myself so I would like the data format to be avialable etc... Gee not much hey? I wonder if I can get one to iron my shirts. Anyway where in Aus is there a site or place I can contact likely to have quality for dollars at a fair price? regards, Peter -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean. +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ To unsubscribe from aussie-weather send e-mail to:majordomo at world.std.com with "unsubscribe aussie-weather your_email_address" in the body of your message. -----------------------jacob at iinet.net.au------------------------------ From: "Bussy" To: "aussie-weather" Subject: aus-wx: Red rain again Date: Wed, 4 Dec 2002 17:50:33 +1100 X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook Express 5.50.4133.2400 Sender: aussie-weather-approval at world.std.com Reply-To: aussie-weather at world.std.com

G'December to All:
       A vigorous Canadian cold front is plowing through Texas, making for a good temp contrast. As of 12:53 A.M. Wed. Dec. 4th: In Amarillo it was 20F(-6.6C) with light snow and a wind chill of 4F(-15.5C) while at the same time Brownsville had 72F(22.2C) and fair skies. (More cool news for ya'll). Tuesday in Mena was a cloudy, raw day with steady rain and a very chilly N/NE wind with temps hanging around 38F(3.3C). We've a chance of rain/sleet/snow flurries this morning--so I guess you can't keep Old Man Winter away forever. I guess you can imagine yourself here and getting cooled off and I can dream about being over in Aus and getting a tan on a beach!!!
BTW, Merry Christmas & Happy New Year to Everyone!
Yours David (Looking for Snowflakes) Powell

Hi Ben,
 
I looked only sideways at the screen on the back of the camera rather than through the sunglasses to focus, so I didn't actually look directly at the sun at any time.
