Doppler Radars
Doppler radars are very useful when it comes to warning about oncoming weather. Most online doppler radar images have a "loop" feature which allows you to see different images over a period of time. This allows you to see if storms are popping up, dissipating, and what direction they are moving in. Each of the radars we have found are a little different from one another so be sure to check them all out!
