Storm Attributes Window

   

GRLevel3 compiles the Storm Attributes window for the current site from the five raw attribute data files. Storms are ranked according to the WSR-88D specification (ICD 2620003G):

  1. TVS
  2. ETVS
  3. MESO
  4. 3D Correlated Shear
  5. 2D Uncorrelated Shear
  6. POSH
  7. POH
  8. Cell-based VIL

Storms in the window are assigned colors based on their severity: purple for storms with TVS/ETVS, red for MESO, orange for 3DC Shear, light orange for 2D Uncorrelated Shear, green for POSH >50%, light green for POSH > 30%, blue for POH >50%, and light blue for POH > 30%.

To zoom the radar display in on a particular storm cell, double-click on the cell in the attributes window. GRLevel3 will center the radar display on the storm and set the viewing radius to 40nm.

Note: clicking on the X in the window caption does not unload the Storm Attributes product, it only hides the window. To unload the Storm Attributes product, use the Products menu.
