Brian,

>May I please have a backup site for the nexrad and fnexrad data? My
>upstream site for nexrad (ldm.meteo.psu.edu) is not responding (and I have
>gotten no email responses this AM), so my class doesn't have real-time
>radar data for today's storm. I have failed over to ALB for all data
>except nexrad (which I do not have permission to get from them).

I setup atm.geo.nsf.gov to allow these feeds for any machine on the
msrc.sunysb.edu subnet (the machine listed in our site contact list is
atmsci.msrc.sunysb.edu but I can not ldmping it).  Please let me know
if your IDD/LDM machine is different.

Also, we have:

David Myers
address@hidden
516-632-8682

as the SUNY Stony Brook site contact.  Please let me know if this should
be changed.

>Thanks for your time and consideration....

The feed above is a temporary one.  As soon as Penn State is reachable,
please fail back to it.  Thanks.
