In short

BeamWeather is a weather utility that shows NEXRAD radar scans in 3D, with full-resolution Level II data, live wind animation, and archived storms back to 1991. It suits people who want to study storm structure in detail. It stands out for letting users slice through a storm to see its vertical structure, and it is not meant for life-safety decisions.
