Re: [ldm-users] TDWRs in our feed :)

Actually, the specific location information of these radars (FAA and NWS) is kept from the general public (Homeland Security).  You can get them, but they are not to be published on any web site or in any way made publicly available.

Is there a list of the lat/lon of the TDWR stations? I looked through the FTP site, including the ICD’s and could not find them

 

Thanks,

According to the NWS, these will be named with a T instead of K to signify TDWR.  So, if for example you are looking for this data at NCDC, they will archived under TFLL, not KFLL.  Tomorrows implementation of two more are in question at the moment.

Hi all,
 
My system just noticed KFLL in our data stream, looks like we will be
seeing more TWDRs in our future starting today :)

Anybody got the GEMPAK station table built for these sites?
    
 
I see it too!

If anyone has the redone GEMPAK, WXP and McIDAS tables, I'd be interested 
in them as well!
