Send a PM to gibbz. He's a grad student in Meteorology. Maybe he can tell you or put you in touch with someone who can.

I used to work right near the big NOAA facility in Boulder (across the street at NIST). All those guys seem to enjoy their jobs - nice laid back environment. Definitely has an academic / collegial feel to me.
