Curious why you use the KLTX and not KRAX?

On this note though, I love the setup we have today and the chances.

Oddly enough, the NWS in Ral has today the lowest chances so far of the entire week despite the obvious best chances we've had all week... something must be going on there, they have been not awesome lately.

Probably because ground clutter can be a pain.

Distant radars can show which updrafts are taller/stronger or developing/dying by the DBZ since there tilt is higher

What he said. LTX, AKQ, MHX give a much better look at what's going on aloft. That storm was on LTX well before RAX since the updraft went up and the rain was suspended. The only issue is they have a tendency to look bigger on the distant radars and when the updraft dies/collapses they are too weak
