Abstract
The present disclosure provides a system that predicts the occurrence and location of a severe weather event including a non-transitory tangible media containing software or firmware encoded thereon for operation by one or more processors that receive a plurality of weather variables, at least one of said weather variables being from radar data from a dual-polarization radar, where the processor (i) generates at least one derived radar variable based on the weather variables, (ii) identifies a geographical region of interest, (iii) validates the presence of the region of interest, (iv) determines whether there is a vertical column of regions of interest, wherein the presence of the vertical column of regions of interest is indicative of the vertical size of the severe weather event and (viii) validates the presence of the vertical columns of regions of interest.
