Hi Jason, 

> Hello,
> I haven't accessed your system much lately, but ran into some trouble
> with requesting new radar data as of yesterday and today.  I tried
> using the remote data data selector option via the NOAA Weather and
> Climate Toolkit with the retrieval link as follows:
> http://motherlode.ucar.edu/cgi-bin/ldm/genweb?native/radar/level2/KBUF/20140504/

Yes, the path has changed and was announced on the THREDDS mailing list, the 
new path is (for today for KBUF)

http://thredds.ucar.edu/thredds/catalog/nexrad/level2/KBUF/20140505/catalog.html

Top level for radar is:

http://thredds.ucar.edu/thredds/idd/radars.html

Catalog top level is now:

http://thredds.ucar.edu/thredds/catalog.html


Note. The cgi-bin has been removed, and the machine name is now thredds, 
instead of motherlode.
