ECHO TOPS<br />

Figure 6-13 NEXRAD Weather Product - Canada<br />

NOTE: Echo tops cannot be displayed at the same time as NEXRAD or Cloud Tops are selected for display.<br />

The Echo Tops weather product (Figure 6-14) shows the location, elevation, and direction of the highest<br />

radar echo. The highest radar echo does not indicate the top of a storm or clouds; rather it indicates the<br />

highest altitude at which precipitation is detected. Information is derived from NEXRAD data.<br />
