By far, radar is the most used weather tool by nearly any professional making decisions about weather. Radar seems like a simple concept—the colored pixels represent precipitation, and if you loop it, it tells you which way the precipitation is moving. In reality, radar is one of the most complex weather tools a meteorologist has and requires significant training. Poor understanding of a weather radar causes supervisors to interpret the radar incorrectly and thus make bad decisions. In this session, attendees will take a fresh look at the weather radar, the best digital places to view radar images, and how to best incorporate it in the decision process using other complementary tools. The presenters will produce clear steps and actions the audience can take to ensure next winter, they are using weather radar to its full potential and making better decisions.

At the conclusion of this session, participants will be better able to:
• Identify the best time to use weather radar and when to use ather tool.
• Interpret a weather radar and understand what it is telling them.
• Formulate better decisions using all available weather information.
