MetWise Review

COMMENTS:
I first tried MetWise awhile back (many months ago) and was not overly impressed with it. I decided to try it again recently when a new build was released. Boy...am I glad I did. This is probably going to be one of the most useful tools that I own. It has quickly become my new best weather friend. This software is one of two that I would give a five star rating. Impressive is all I can say. I have posted a number of images below and you can see some examples of the products output. I first re-downloaded the software about 2 weeks ago. I immediately ran into issues with the computer that I was on. I emailed the software manufacturer and he tried to trouble-shoot the problem with me. We could not fix the problem. In the end it was decided that the issue was the computer. This was not a surprise as the DELL Computer that I was on had to be sent back and replaced with another one. So I downloaded the product again last week and it worked flawlessly. I signed up, for the five day free trial, and immediately received a free password and username. It took me less than 30 seconds to sign on and start downloading images.
Within 10 minutes I had my first image uploaded to a web-site...showing the potential for a high wind event in Illinois. It took me a few hours to learn a lot of the ins and outs of the software. A lot was learned just by trial and error. Once you read the manual though you will have little or no problem figuring out how to use this software.
I HIGHLY recommend everyone try this software. IF YOU ARE ONE OF THOSE PEOPLE WHO TRIED THIS SOFTWARE OUT BUT DELETED IT IN THE PAST - THEN TRY IT AGAIN! TRUST ME ON THIS ONE.
