Access the NWS Software Page (http://205.156.54.206/im/softa.htm) via the Class Website. Obtain the SHARP (2/98) Version and Install if on your Home Machines. Those with PCs can unzip the file and run the installer….place the home directory on your “C” drive. Those with MACs can unzip the file using STUFFIT and place the software in a subdirectory called SHARP. Using VirtualPC you can run the program. (The newest version of the software runs in UNIX….and is being adaped for use natively on MAC OSX, but not Windows. However, the older version of the software (1998) is excellent.)

While you are there, get SeverePlot and install it as well.
