Stormtracker 16's FutureRadar is a
state-of-the-art system for displaying future weather patterns. Twice each day, weather
data is run through a high-speed computer which creates a forecast for hundreds of
locations across Pennsylvania. This data is then plotted on a map using colors that make
it look like a radar image. We do this for 45 different times, each map representing a
different half-hour. Then we place these maps in sequence to create FutureRadar.
