Surface map archives

#1 Postby HalloweenGale » Sat Jun 09, 2007 10:17 pm

Hello, I am wondering if there are any sites out there that have surface map archives dating at least as far back as the 80's? Not WxHistory.com. I'm looking for fronts and Low pressure areas.

Official surface analyses dating back to 1871: http://docs.lib.noaa.gov/rescue/dwm/dat ... _maps.html

You do need to download the DejaVu viewer, though . . . but it's not that much of a hassle.
