How is radar used to predict measure weather?

Weather radar devices electronically convert the reflected radio waves into picture that show the location and intensity of precipitation and the speed of the wind.


How do things observe?

Things observe objects by capturing light rays reflected by the objects. The information in the captured rays are processed by the brain or electronically to produce an image.


What two ways does water vapor leave the gaseous state in the atmosphere?

Precipitation and condensation. Precipitation is rain, snow, hail, ect. Condensation are the little water droplets that form on the outside of a cold drinking glass on a hot and humid day.


How do you watch weather from space?

There are weather sattellites that orbit the Earth that can detect reflected radiation, emitted radiation, or radiation reflected only by water vapour as well as satellites that emit microwave radiation to detect the clouds or precipitation.


Why can't you see in a white-out?

Because there is so much precipitation that no light reflected from the object that you wish to see reaches you. As a result you can't see it.


What adds to the magnification to the object you are viewing?

Physically - by bending (called refracting) the light waves, reflected by the object, through a lens or series of lenses. Electronically - digital enhancement of the electronic signals generated by light waves reflected by the object and collected by a light amplification tube called a photo receptor.


Was there a risk for a tornado outbreak on May 6 Th 2015 in the US?

The fact that a small to moderate tornado outbreak occurred shows that there clearly was a risk. The Outlooks issued by the Storm Prediction Center reflected that possibility.


What are 3 examples of light being reflected?

- light reflected from a window- light reflected from a mirror- light reflected from snow


What does the level of reflectivity show meteorologists?

The level of reflectivity shows the amount of precipitation. For example, if the radar map is a lighter blue, then the blue light is being reflected, or rather, is visible to the radar. This is usually around 15-20 dBZ, which indicates light rain. The higher the dBZ is, the higher the amount of precipitation is. So, 60 dBZ of rain would indicate more severe storms. The light being reflected at this point is more red.


What reflected sound is called?
