Advance warnings of major ated with the NEXRAD radars. The existing National tornadoes could be as much as 30 minutes, because Weather Service office sites will be consolidated into Doppler radars allow forecasters to see inside storms this new national network. • for the first time. 25 years ago. . . 50 years ago. . .
