  6. WEATHER RADARS ACCORDING TO FREQUENCY BANDS L BAND RADARS 15 – 30 cm and 1 – 2 GHz Clear air turbulance (CAT) S BAND RADARS 8 – 15 cm and 2 – 4 GHz Near and far weather observation C BAND RADARS 4 – 8 cm and 4 – 8 GHz Short range weather observation X BAND RADARS 2.5 – 4 cm and 8 – 12 GHz; Short range weather observation and cloud development K BAND RADARS 0.75 – 1.2 cm or 1.7 – 2.5 cm and 27 – 40 GHz or 12 – 18 GHz It is similar to the X band, but is just more sensitive OPERATIONAL WEATHER RADAR
