I'm having a brain fart

I'm having a complete brain fart rn and can't think of the name of this. What do you call the one radar thing that shows precipitation and stuff and is how you see debris balls (not reflectivity) and are there any free apps that give you that

Weather in South Dakota

Well, it sure got hot in South Dakota today! I live in NE SD, mand in my city, at about 5pm, it was 86 degrees F. Yes! FINALLY!

Unfortunately next week starting on Tuesday we're expecting rain all day, wind, and temps back down to around the 40's. Ugh!

Is wytch a real weather term?

I saw somewhere a while back that one meaning of wytch was a cold weather (I think autumn/fall) storm. I have tried to look for it but can't find it anymore. I was wondering if it was true at least to a point?

Edit: a redditor thankfully pointed out the spelling mistake. I meant witch, not wytch

Weather apps

Are there any apps that show things other than reflectivity, like velocity and rotation and other things like that, that are free

This is what it looks like when ice crystals from a cirrus cloud fall into a layer of air moving at a slower speed.

Suggestions for a radar app?

I live in the NE part of Vermont, our lovely radar site, KCXX, is a giant void. I cannot accurately read anything east of it. Radaromega is what I am using, I could use MRMS but I cannot accurately depict what is in the atmosphere(hail, heavy precip, etc.).

Anything else I can use on desktop/mobile?

Tips for traveling tornado alley.

As we get into tornado season, I wanted to put together a resource for those traveling across Tornado Alley. As always, if you plan to travel check with the Storm Prediction Center and local National Weather Service (NWS)offices to prepare yourself. Things to check include daily outlooks, Mesoscale Discussions (MD) Area forecast discussions (AFD) (Example - Wichita AFD) any watches and warnings in the area. Watches are issued by the SPC, whereas warnings are issued by individual NWS offices. (A watch means conditions are possible, and warning means conditions are happening.) If you're on the road and looking for a good radar app, it's worth it to invest in something like Radarscope or RadarOmega. They cost about $10 for the base app and are well worth it. (Short video on How to read radar.) Always heed EAS warnings and shelter appropriately. In the event you need to seek shelter, here is a list of Public Storm Shelters(Please note, the Kansas State Turnpike is currently phasing out its toll booth storm shelters with the introduction of cashless tolling.)

Always remember- never shelter under an overpass, and turn around don't drown! Stay safe out there.

Can anyone tell me how bad the storm in the Atlantic will be tonight?

My family and I are on a cruise back from Bermuda. My sister gets seasick easily and is getting anxious about this storm we are heading into. We even had to leave Bermuda a day early to avoid this storm, according to the captain. Can anyone let us know what we can expect ?

TIA !
