"Much of the realtime data available over the Unidata Internet Data Distribution 
(IDD) is available through a THREDDS Data Server hosted at Unidata on 
motherlode.ucar.edu. This includes a significant portion of the NCEP model runs, the 
National Digital Forecast Database, both the level 2 and level 3 NEXRAD data, GOES 
satellite data, and Metar station data. Currently we are maintaining the latest seven 
days worth of data. We plan to continue to add realtime datasets from the IDD onto the 
motherlode server, and to add enhanced metadata."
