Radial velocity vectors in an RHI scan of a thunderstorm. Radial velocity vectors in an RHI scan of a thunderstorm.

Earth-relative radial velocity vectors imply strong, divergent flow in the downstream anvil region of a thunderstorm. Mid-level convergence exists in the nearer-range side of the echo core. (CSU-CHILL S-band data.)
