Results • Doppler spectra agree at higher alitudes and differ close to the ground • Rain rate values agree close to the ground • Attenuation correction seems to be different for • Uni Bonn and Metek/Wageningen radars • Wish List • Rain gauge data on bbc server as soon as possible no special format needed • - TARA, KNMI 35 GHz and GKSS radar reflectivity and • velocity data (+ quicklooks) • for May 18, 17 UTC and possibly May 19 More data needs to be analysed !
