Mesocyclone radial velocity pattern (circled) at a range of ~15 km from the NWS KFTG radar on 20 July 2013. The narrow (0.3 deg) beamwidth of the CSU-CHILL X-band (9 GHZ) channel allowed the collection of high resolution data from this same circulation despite its being at a range of ~80 km. Various data plots, including a dual-Doppler horizontal wind field synthesis, have been prepared.

High Park Fire
Sun setting behind the smoke plume of the High Park fire as observed from the CSU-CHILL radar site near 02 UTC on 23 June 2012. Echoes from ash and debris lofted by fire-driven updrafts, and microwave noise radiation from the sun, are both present in the reflectivity data.
