You can also often see outflow boundaries from storms in EC due to its high resolution (about 9km).


Hi Ken,

Is EC data publicly available or is it restricted commercial data?


Many of more of its parameters are publicly available through 3rd party websites than they used to be. For example, windy.com or the Windy app will show EC data by default (unless you choose another applicable model for your region) with lots of parameters. Same with weather.us and some others.
Some parameters are still only available through user pays websites or internally to national weather agencies though.
