The Weather radar base reflectivity mosaics are created using data from U.S. Weather Surveillance Radar 1988 Doppler (WSR-88D) sites operated by NWS and DOD and also from the Canadian Environment and Climate Change (ECCC) network of S-band dual polarization radars. The horizontal resolution is 1 km (0.62 mi). The mosaics are updated approximately every 2 minutes. The colors on the map represent the strength of the energy reflected back toward the radar and are given in dBZ (decibels of z). Data source: NWS & OAR Multi-Radar/Multi-Sensor (MRMS) System.
