In OB6, six snow fall radar products have been added to the suite of
radar products. As the product selector menus in the RPS List Editor,
One Time Request (OTR) and Radar Multiple Request
(RMR)applications are getting lengthy, especially with the addition of
the snow products, these menus have been redesigned. This UIWG
evaluated these menu changes and the radar application GUIs for the
snowfall products
Xiangboa presented the product selection options for the RPS List

In addition to the material presented above, Jim Ramer presented
the placement of the snowfall within the radar menus.
