What is the website that the guys use to track the storms? Meaning, what is the weather website?

I don't remember what season it was but in one episode Wurman was mentioning something about 'threatnet' to Herb or someone.

GRLevel3. GRLevel3 is a Windows viewer for live NEXRAD Level III data from the NWS Radar Product Central Collection Dissemination Service. The program basically compiles all the data available from the National Weather Services website.

The DOW trucks use Baron's WxWorx software. It is a Mobile Threat Net program that downloads data through the XM satellites. Very neat program, there is a downloadable, interactive demonstration at http://www.wxworx.com/ground/index.php
