Alabama, Elmore

Public Information Statement

Statement as of 8:30 AM CDT on May 22, 2008


... False echoes on the radar this morning...

Central Alabama residents may want to carry an umbrella today... but
no need to get concerned about the morning radar imagery. Area
radars are suffering from a phenomenon called anomalous propagation
or ap. Ap occurs frequently this time of year when air warms
significantly just off the surface trapping the radar beam... kind
of like a mirror... reflecting the beam back down to the surface.
In essence the reflections seen on radar is the surface of the Earth
or at least features on the surface. These false echoes should
quickly disappear as surface temperatures warm this morning. Expect
isolated to scattered thunderstorms to develop after 3 PM this
afternoon.
