Another site which includes dual polarimetric properties, as well as
standard reflectivity and velocity for many levels, and other products
like VAD,
is weather.cod.edu. Under the menu heading Weather Analysis Tools,
select Satellite and Radar. The result will be a map of the lower 48
with all the
NEXRAD sites. Select KLWX for Sterling, VA, and the next page will
present many choices!
