As used at the recent WGC in Benalla... An excellent forecasting tool has been released in the USA, first available for the SW. More to come?

I have flown using Matthew Scutter's SkySight website when in Australia and found it extremely useful.

The graphics are well done and a very useful selection of parameters - I will be evaluating this with my other forecasting tools.

What model does it use for the Western USA?

Walt Rogers has been comparing it to other forecasts, including HRRR. Believe he's traveling now and will likely comment later.
