Doppler Radar

 


Much more than a term just heard on our Local Weather Stations or on the Weather Channel for that matter, Doppler Radars are an essence to our daily forecasts.  As learned, Doppler Radars are able to estimate two parameters: reflectivity and vocational velocity.  Waves are sent out to gather information about movement.  The image placed above is a National Doppler Radar shot as seen on November 14, 2011.  Many websites provide Real Time Doppler Radar information for its users.
