Doppler Radar



This is an example of the Doppler Radar view from Oklahoma City/Twin Lakes area. Doppler radar works by emitting microwave radiation from a given point and measures the time of arrival of reflected pulses from distant objects. Here it shows the severity of a storm which resulted in a tornado. The red areas are more severe in respect to the weather than the green areas.
