KDIX Doppler Radar to be upgraded to Dual-Pol


MGorse

Recommended Posts

Thought this comment out of the CHS office in South Carolina this morning would be of interest to those wondering how the dual-pol would perform in winter weather.

FORECAST

SOUNDINGS ACROSS THE FAR WESTERN ZONES STILL SUGGEST THERE WILL BE

ABOUT A 3-4 HOUR WINDOW FOR SOME LIGHT SLEET TO MIX IN WITH THE

RAIN AT TIMES. HAVE ALREADY SEEN SEVERAL REPORTS OF LIGHT SLEET

ACROSS CENTRAL GEORGIA OVER THE PAST FEW HOURS WITH THE MOST

RECENT REPORT COMING OUT OF THE WARNER ROBBINS AREA. DUAL-POL

DATA FROM THE RECENTLY UPGRADED KFFC RADAR HAS BEEN MOST USEFUL IN

HELPING TO VERIFY P-TYPE TRENDS EARLY THIS MORNING WITH SLEET

REPORTS LINING UP NICELY WITH THE HYBRID HYDROMETER CLASSIFICATION

PRODUCT. WILL CONTINUE TO HIGHLIGHT A CHANCE OF SLEET ROUGHLY

ALONG AND WEST OF A HAMPTON-SPRINGFIELD-CLAXTON-REIDSVILLE LINE

THROUGH MID-MORNING.
