Hello case study users,


      -----COMET CASE STUDY 023--WINTER SEVERE WEATHER-----
 
 This case follows the development of a strong extratropical cyclone that
 took place from 8-11 November 1998. Severe weather that accompanied the
 case included blizzard conditions in the Upper Midwest and severe
 thunderstorms over the Mississippi Valley.
 
 The case allows the study of extratropical cyclone development from
 initial to mature stages.
       
 Case 023 is now available for searching, browsing, and ordering for FTP
 download including data in GRIB, McIDAS, GEMPAK, and NIDS formats.
 
 
                      -----NEW FORMAT AVAILABLE-----
      
 Data for Case 023 is also available in netCDF, AWIPS compatible, format
 when ordered as a complete dataset through the CODIAC WWW system. This is
 the fifth case made available in this format.
