Doppler Radar



Doppler radar is something that almost everyone is familiar with.  Doppler radar is a radar tracking system using the Doppler effect to determine the location and velocity of a storm, clouds, precipitation, or wind.  The above picture is the Doppler radar of Annapolis, Maryland where my brother is currently doing plebe summer at the Naval Academy.  From this map you can see where the rainstorms are located.
