@Skydaver1

Thanks for the feedback. We currently are posting through our organization: NOAA National Severe Storms Laboratory. I've added the direct FB and Twitter links in the video info above. Let me know if you have trouble accessing them.

Was this video made for kids or something?

I've read that KSNW's radar in Haven, KS is up for grabs. I wonder what is going to replace it- I'd like to see an Enterprise 1MW S-band radar with dual polarization.

I don't particularly like the "Weather For Dummies" style format. Most dummies don't have the attention span for this information, nor the interest or desire to learn in the first place. It reminds me of watching a film strip in First grade. Other than that, I'm excited about the implementation of the advanced technology, and you guys definitely do amazing work. Much thanks and appreciation!

Haha, that's a great way to get people interested in dual-polarization technology! Loved it! Thanks for uploading.

The guy in the second commercial has integrity issues with his grids in the background!

Now that is customer service! Thanks.
