svhar,
Your post #311 is essentially incorrect except for the Boeing part.
Those colors are in agreement with the local TV weather radar reports during episodes of severe weather, TS and potential tornados.
However,
Quote by BOAC: - don't forget that those images were not what you would have seen on your shufti-scope - the colours are synthetically produced based on temperature I believe and we just do not know what would have been seen on their radars.
Quote by svhar: I do not know what equipment you have been using, but you are talking about things you have no idea about. All weather radars display level of precipitation.
If you go back to
ironbutt57 post #281 and click on its content, you will discover it does not refer to weather radar in the imagery at all except for one small image a vertical slice through the CB provided by NASA CloudSat. All the other major images are indeed thermal imagery from satellites, some enhanced by the author or others.
Quote by svhar: I once knew a guy who talked like a professional pilot in the cafeteria with endless stories of his adventures in Africa, but there always where holes in his stories. He was able to fool everyone for a long time and was adored by lots of guys and girls. No one really cared to blow his cover because he was in fact good company. Always called "The Captain". He had a PPL and worked as an ambulance driver. Reminds me of BOAC.
IMO, an apology is in order to
BOAC for your snarky remark...
