[python #FUF-876298]: Server 500 error

Hi, thanks for reaching out!

As far as I know, there shouldn't be any limiting going on. There are other 
considerations likely at play here for working with large amounts of data. 
Please provide the full HTTPError if possible for us to double-check.

Given that, the best path forward is likely to interface directly with the 
NEXRAD bucket on AWS, listed here: https://registry.opendata.aws/noaa-nexrad/. 
Check out the proposed code changes in this MetPy Pull Request 
(https://github.com/Unidata/MetPy/pull/3000) for sample code to access NEXRAD 
data on AWS. I hope this helps, and please follow up if we can help further!


All the best,

Drew
