During the spring of 2004, forecasters at the National Weather Service Weather Forecast Office (WFO) in Norman, Oklahoma, used the NSSL Warning Decision Support System - Integrated Information (WDSS-II) and associated products during warning decision-making. WDSS-II allowed forecasters to interrogate data from both operational and research sensors, interact with prototype radar appliactions, and view products from multiple radars and multiple data sources. Forecasters evaluated prototype multiple-radar and multiple-sensor severe weather warning decision-making applications, and provided feedback on experimental WDSS-II 4D display tools. Results from the real-time test, including case examples, are presented.
