Anyone know where I can find a current Lifted Index chart?

I can't seem to find one anywhere.

Dennis Newton's Severe Weather Flying mentions the NWS website but theirs seems outdated. Does anybody know where to find a current chart?

Yeah, can't find an "official" (primary provider) Lifted Index chart either. However, Unisys is an outstanding source for comprehensive weather information. Find the current chart at

Unisys Weather - Lifted Index - Current (http://weather.unisys.com/upper_air/ua_cont.php?plot=lif&inv=0&t=cur&expanddiv=hide_bar) (h**p://weather.unisys.com/upper_air/ua_cont.php?plot=lif&inv=0&t=cur&expanddiv=hide_bar)

Happy flying!
