2. ARMOR Doppler Weather Radar - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ARMOR_Doppler_Weather_Radar

   ARMOR (Advanced Radar for Meteorological and Operational Research) Doppler weather radar is a C-Band, Dual-Polarimetric Doppler Weather Radar, located at the Huntsville International Airport in Huntsville, Alabama. The radar is a collaborative effort between WHNT-TV and the University of Alabama in Huntsville. Live data for the radar is only ...

3. WHNT-TV - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WHNT-TV

   Since Fall 2004, WHNT has used the ARMOR Doppler Weather Radar system in weather forecasting along with its own weather radar at its transmitter site. On August 18, 2008, WHNT became the first television station in Huntsville to begin broadcasting all of its news programs in digital 16:9 widescreen. Although not truly high definition when ...

4. WAFF (TV) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WAFF_(TV)

   WAFF's "First Alert Doppler Radar" (formerly "Live Stormtracker Doppler"), which was located in Limestone County just off of US 72, was destroyed when it was hit by a large and violent tornado (which produced EF5 damage in nearby Tanner, approximately 10 miles (16 km) away from the radar site) on April 27, 2011. A camera mounted on the tower ...

   Doppler on Wheels (or DOW) is a fleet of X-band and C-band mobile and quickly-deployable truck-borne radars which are the core instrumentation of the Flexible Array of Radars and Mesonets [1] affiliated with the University of Alabama Huntsville [2] and led by Joshua Wurman, with the funding partially provided by the National Science Foundation ...

7. WAAY-TV - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WAAY-TV

   The station operates its own weather radar at the main studios called "Live Storm Force 31 Doppler Max". On December 12, 2011, WAAY began broadcasting its news programming in high definition, making it the third station in the Huntsville television market to do so behind WAFF and WHNT. The WZDX broadcasts were included in the upgrade.

8. Doppler radar - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doppler_radar

   A Doppler radar is a specialized radar that uses the Doppler effect to produce velocity data about objects at a distance. [1] It does this by bouncing a microwave signal off a desired target and analyzing how the object's motion has altered the frequency of the returned signal.

9. List of radar types - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_radar_types

   The frequency selection of weather radar is a performance compromise between precipitation reflectivity and attenuation due to atmospheric water vapor. Some weather radars uses doppler shift to measure wind speeds and dual-polarization for identification of types of precipitations. [3] [4] Weather radar; Wind profilers; Millimetre cloud radar ...
