Much better than the old one. You can switch between IR, WV, VIS, ect. while in animation. :D And so organized and easy to navigate! Everything right at your finger tips on one page. Thanks for the link!
8-)

EDIT: Just tried the capture feature on animation.........wow! Very, very cool. I can now save animated movies of a storm with no hassle. Yippy, now that is awesome.

There were actually numerous updates. Now I can get SSTS and quickscat. I really like being able to look at invests in this way.
