Ooof. I had no idea RadarScope supported custom imported color tables. Requires a PRO1 subscription ($10/year) for the feature. Conveniently, RadarScope uses GR2 Analyst's color palette files. Finally RadarScope and AWIPS colors are the same. #meteorology #win

If you're in the eastern half of the US and not a fan of the cold, things are looking up. Back to a milder pattern by the end of the week.

I have soft spot for these OG Koss Porta Pro headphones. Not bad sound for $30USD (Amazon), which included the pouch.
