Frozen precipitation accumlation alert system

摘要

A frozen precipitation accumulation alert system for a target area wherein the system comprises a means and apparatus for measuring at least one meteorological indicator in at least one measurement location proximate to the target area, detecting meteorological structure using radar data from a weather radar over a region that includes the target area, and determining a precipitation accumulation forecast based the meteorological structure and at least one meteorological indicator. The system further includes a means and apparatus for quantifying a precipitation rate of frozen precipitation over time wherein the precipitation rate is one of the meteorological indicators, and generating a view of user selected ones of the meteorological indicators, the meteorological structure, and the precipitation accumulation forecast.
