TRDU — Raleigh-Durham, North Carolina
The terminal Doppler weather radar at Raleigh-Durham, North Carolina — an airport radar that scans faster and finer than the WSR-88D nearby, which is what makes it the better look at a storm crossing the field. Open it in HookEcho for the live loop, velocity and dual-pol.

Where to see this radar
The National Weather Service publishes no web loop for terminal radars, so the image above is ours: HookEcho reads the TRDU products straight from the NOAA archive and renders them at the TDWR's own resolution. In the app you get the rest — reflectivity, velocity and dual-pol at every tilt, with warnings, storm reports and lightning drawn over the same map.
