Is there an issue with the transmission of data to the online sites?

It's working on my end. But on the melbourne radar when looping, one frame flashes "Due to technical difficulties, the radar display is temporarily unavailable. Thank you for your patience." Lafayette radar working just like melbournes.

Miami weather says they are currently installing new parts. It has been down more than up since Sat. I believe.

Fine here - you might want to change the title of the topic, however, since it must have been just an isolated problem...

thanks frank, I see it is back up now. I hope it remains. They really have alot of problems with the Miami radar it seems. It always worries me it will go down with an approaching storm.

The Memphis AND Little Rock radar kept going down all the time last Spring. It was really annoying since it was a pretty rough one, weather-wise.

It's a problem with the way the NWS designed the javascript or something... it does that periodically from time to time even when all other radar sources indicate nothing is wrong.
