Now available COMET Case 006, Chicago Flood/Oakfield, WI F5 Tornado

NOTE: The casestudies mailing list is no longer active. The list archives are made available for historical reasons.

We are pleased to announce the initial release of COMET case 006, a case study of a major rainfall event on 17 July 1996 over Chicago,
Illinois suburbs and a severe thunderstorm (including an F5 tornado)
event on 18 July 1996 over Eastern Wisconsin.  Case 006 is now
available for delivery on 8mm tape and can be ordered through the
CODIAC WWW system.
The case includes radar data from Chicago, IL, Green Bay, WI, and
Sullivan, WI as well as NOWRAD composites from WSI.  The case study
also includes GOES-8 satellite imagery, surface and upper air
observations, and the traditional NCEP model data.
TO ORDER AN 8MM TAPE

An 8mm tape of the COMET case study 006 can be ordered through the
CODIAC WWW system.  For details on how to order a tape, go to:

SEARCH, BROWSE, AND FTP ACCESS

Currently, these capabilities are not available.  Once each of the
component datasets that make up COMET case 005 is loaded into CODIAC,
the datasets that compose COMET case 006 will be loaded into CODIAC.
Loading the datasets into CODIAC allows for searching, browsing, and
ordering subsets of the datasets for delivery via FTP.
