Fields27 Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 I think every animated forecast radar I saw had that lack of nw progression shown for the better part of the day until the phase then it really filled in nicely. For whatever that's worth... Not doing much of anything here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

noctilucent Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 Warrington, PA. Rain of varying intensity. Temp has risen to 32.7 and winds have turned back to a more SE direction. My radar hallucination for today is "late phasing". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wkd Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 Still snowing at Flemington, NJ. Haven't had any mixing yet. Got a question for Ray. How is visibility measured? How far awat you can see lights. I assume it is geared toward aviation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How far awat you can see lights. I assume it is geared toward aviation. pick a location that you the distance of. Like say if you are looking into the horizon and you know a place that is a mile away. If you can't see that you are under a mile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How far awat you can see lights. I assume it is geared toward aviation. At night I think that's how they do it. During the day its how far you can see structures, I think. Of course, that's the manual method; the automated equipment actually uses a forward scatter flash lamp to see how much light is reflected off of its intended path; the more light reflected, the lower the visibility.

BTW, Tony Gigi (Rainshadow) actually did this at the NYC area airports back in the day, so he's really the person to ask. I never did that for a living (though it would've been cool).
