   Rainfall radar. Radar is one of the best tools in a forecaster’s kit, allowing us to see where in the UK it’s raining, how heavy the rain is, how quickly the rain is moving, and even whether it’s rain, sleet or snow (crucial during the tricky winter months).

   Can a weather radar'see' precipitation?

   • It was soon decided that being able to 'see' precipitation would be of great value, so much investigation was done to perfect this method. In simple terms, a weather radar sends out a pulse at a wavelength of 5.6 cm which is reflected by precipitation (this is then compared to a number of rain gauges and adjusted accordingly).

   How does weather radar work?

   • Radar works by sending out electromagnetic pulses and measuring how long they take to return from a target, e.g. an aircraft or a ship. It has been known for many years that other objects can also create a return, e.g. flocks of birds or precipitation.

   Why are weather radars so difficult to detect?

   • Weather radars observe rain, hail and snow, but drizzle can be more difficult to detect because the droplets are so small. Doppler radar functions are also used for the detection of dangerous wind conditions (e.g. wind shear) which constitute a significant hazard to aviation safety.

   How does Doppler radar work?

   • Doppler radar technology is used to work out the speed and direction of the precipitation. The characteristics of the returned radar signals, especially the shape and strength, allow the radar to differentiate between rain, sleet and snow. Dual polarisation radar can determine precipitation type © Met Office
