What HookEcho shows that the loop above does not
That GIF is one product at one tilt, rendered on someone else's server. HookEcho reads the Level 2 volume from KRTX directly: every elevation angle, storm-relative velocity with dealiasing, correlation coefficient for debris signatures, and the warnings, storm reports and lightning drawn over the same map.
