Ever wonder what the second-wettest 24 hours on record in Salt Lake City looks like? A strong shortwave passed through on Saturday, delivering a rare all-day rain and dropping 2.39 inches at the airport!

Yeah… the Jackson + Henry combo is nuts, especially when the team has been drafted and built to defend the pass

Down 9, gotta try for as many points as possible. More trust in Josh and the offense than the 41 year old kicker we just signed

Also a very happy Ambient Weather owner. Love the app, only one small quirk with the wifi going down and not reconnecting until a hard reset, but that is solved with a smart plug

I think the primary function of this radar is for the ocean surface to derive wind speeds rather than precip but agreed, would be cool to see it along side the tail Doppler radar. Would also be nice for the poster here to credit the actual source: www.linkedin.com/posts/agile-...

Negative altitudes represent β€œsecond trip” like echoes, a reflection of sorts of the real precipitation echoes. Has to do with the radar signal bouncing more than once and thus looking β€œfarther” than it actually is

22 scans of Hurricane Erin in just 4 days with tomorrow’s current constellation. Still more satellites to be launched this year and next, which will only increase the temporal coverage. www.linkedin.com/posts/tomorr...

maybe price has come down recently, but I’ll believe it when I see it. Personally, I think we will go to a variable system design. Where PARs make a lot of sense in tornado/hurricane country and a network of more (including well placed Xband) conv. radars in the mountains

Unfortunately it still needs to spin because the cost of the panels is way to high currently (a single panel radar that spins, will cost way less than a 4 panel radar that doesn’t spin)

I just can’t help but to wonder with older satellites if this storm would have looked way less intense even just 10 years ago with GOES-13

If we just had DVORAK and no recon for this storm, would it still be as strong as it is?
