We can't see weather at all on the radar. We rely on pilots telling us where the cells are, however thats not always reliable as one will fly straight through it and another will take a 50 mile detour around it. We deal with it on an individual basis.

In the example you give Braso is generally only used for traffic reasons ie lots of, not weather reasons. If there is a cell sat over LAM then maybe.
