Dopplar Radar Map



A Dopplar Radar map is a map of the weather radar system that employs the apparent shift in frequency of radio waves to perceive air motion and consequently predict tornadoes and precipitation sooner than previous radars. It also measures the speed and direction of rain and ice. This map is a dopplar radar map because it shows movement of weather (Tropical Storm Alberto) across a region.
