Figure 1. Reflectivity (left) and radial velocities (right) of the supercell storm on 14 May 1994, 23:02, 0.3° elevation. The radar is situated 150 km to the south-east of the storm. Black lines indicate a 100 km grid.

Figure 2. Multicellular storm embedded in a squall line on 17 October 1999 at 13:16, 0.3° elevation, as well as trajectories of the 30 dBZ contour envelopes of Cells A and B from 12:01 to 14:46. The grid is 100 km.

Figure 3. Reflectivity (left) and radial velocities (right) of the hailstorm on 17 October 1999, 14:01, 0.3° elevation. The grid is 100 km.

Figure 6. PPI at 4.6° elevation and vertical cross-sections along line AB through the Microburst storm on 22 November 1999 at 13:01 and 13:16, respectively. Reflectivity (left) and radial velocities (right) are shown in separate cross-sections.
