Since it is the off-season, I'm sure that this would be a good time to share and pull out archived data; radar data, in particular, of past storms. Of course, I can't do that all by myself, so that's where you come in. For any other storms of interest, please, feel free to post them!
To get started, you can go to the NCDC, the place where I obtained all of the proceeding data. I really don't want to post any "how to's" or help of that sort, because it is all within the site itself, and that would just be redundant. In addition, it is fairly easy and straightforward after the first try. The software that I used was the BETA Version 1.3.2 of Java NEXRAD Viewer (includes Data Exporter). Further, on the side menu of the latter hyperlink, you will find helpful information and tutorials on how to get started.
Here, I'll start off; and I will refrain from posting thumbnails, because those, too, are unusually massive in size. With that said, be warned; some of these files may be quite big. Also, don't be afraid to post single, one frame images.

I managed to get a single image of Ewiniar making landfall in South Korea last year (for the Wikipedia article). Also have Saomai passing through Guam as a tropical storm (gif and still image), and Hurricane Kyle (2002) from Wilmington and Raleigh-Durham radars.
