Is it possible to load the Day1/D2 outlooks into StormLab? If so, does anyone know of the format to convert SPC text files into the appropriate format?
Thanks

The day 1 outlook is available as part of the AllisonHouse package. The day 2 outlook would serve no purpose in a radar application :)

Thanks Evan. Makes sense about not using D2.
I'm trying to find a free source. Maybe I will have to tinker with the text from SPC.

Sorry I couldn't be of more help Lee, but I will say that the AH feed has been invaluable to me with their various feeds from SPC, local storm reports, real-time lightning data, etc...

I will give them a look at.
After an extensive search the last two days I ended up finding and program at NWS called tkdegrib; an NDFD GRIB2 decoder. A really nice program, but you have to constantly manually download throughout the day (the various forecasts) and then, using the program, convert them into shapefile.
So I will probably end up going with AH.
