Is Winchendon Mass having a tornado and thunderstorms?

Asked by Kayden over 9 years ago

I would turn to weather.gov and click on your area of the map for updates from the National Weather Service.

Would you please answer whether there is any uncertainty sensor data in meteorological application?

Not sure I understand the question...?

Where can I get info to teach me to read doppler radar maps? I just purchased an app called Radarscope and I am lost and I need this since I live in OKC area.
Thanks

Hi Jerry-

Great choice! RadarScope is the best. I would start here: http://www.srh.noaa.gov/jetstream/doppler/doppler_intro.htm

In addition to the products on the Radar Images page I would use the Vertically Integrated Liquid product, it is a good indicator of hail.

Also, here is a short video from the developer:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zUKzIeHtjho

Stay safe!

Hello I would like to know your view on climate change? Do you think humans have to do with this?

Pretty important question. Not really my area of expertise but I know pretty smart people on both sides of the issue. I do think you can only pour something into a system for so long before you have an effect on that system. Not sure if we have gotten there yet or not.

Real, or not?

I'm going to say "real". Shot with a wide lens and color enhanced in something like Photoshop. Great stuff!

but it has been in the 90s every day for the last 4 weeks. What happened to that prediction?

Asked by Ricky over 9 years ago

I have a question about global wind patterns. I understand the Coriolis Effect and its effect of turning winds in the northern hemisphere to the left. Why, then, do the Prevailing Westerlies in the northern hemisphere turn to the RIGHT?

Asked by Melinda about 10 years ago

Great question, Melinda.  In addition to the Coriolis Effect there is vertical motion known as a Hadley cells, rising and sinking air, creating something of a "loop". http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hadley_cell  Hope that helps Thanks!
