Product Ranges

  • Ranges at which WSR-88D data are received and meteorological algorithms are active.  

  • The entire suite of data, algorithms, and products are available out to 230 km.  

  • No velocity information is available beyond 230km  

  • Storms are identified, tracked, and locations forecast to the 345 km range.  

  • Between 345 and 460 km, no algorithms are active, but reflectivity products are available.
