Welcome to the land of Bufkit. Please navigate the links above, and hopefully you will find what you're looking for. Enjoy!

    Announcement: Jan. 23, 2009 - The Bufkit Warehouse has begun providing GFS and NAM bufkit profiles for the Contiguous USA. Additionally, the profiles are sent to a perl script and the Cobb output is generated for each site. You may find links to all of the above on a google map here. Lastly, you can view meteograms of the model output and Cobb snowfall projections, along with MOS forecasts, NWS point forecasts, and the nearest ASOS here. Please note: All of these tools were designed for Mozilla Firefox... I have no guarentees they will work in IE, Chrome, etc... with time, I hope to work out these compatibility issues. Enjoy!

    Profile availability: Scripts to generate the bufkit profiles for the NAM are initiated (model run time + 3 hrs), and for the GFS (model run time + 5 hrs). It takes about 30 min. for all the sites + cobb output to be generated. If you would like some sites to be bumped up near the top of the list (to get generated earlier), let me know...

If there is anything you would like to see changed or added to this page, please contact me at: ckarsten@iastate.edu
