What is a radar loop?
Looking at several radar images over a period of time — or a radar loop — can offer clues about where and how fast the rain or snow is falling. Weather radar can track rain and snow, and see potential for flash flooding.
Why did NOAA change the radar?
The new radar website, which shows where it’s raining and snowing across the United States, along with other radar products, was intended to be an improvement from the legacy site, boasting a “load of new features,” according to the Weather Service.

What is the name of the NOAA’s newest weather satellite?

What do the colors mean on NOAA radar?
Typically, the heavier the rain, the warmer the color. So, green usually means light rain, yellow means moderate rain, and red means heavy rain or hail. The green colors indicate winds moving towards the radar, and the red colors indicate winds moving away from the radar.
