Always make note of the age of
the data displayed in the
bottom right corner (see Figure
2-25). Remember, the older
the age the more suspect the
accuracy of the data. The col-
ored bar will be green the first
50% of the expiration time
period for the displayed data
then turn yellow. Also, delays
occurring prior to the weather
distributor time stamping the
data are not reflected in the dis-
played age. These delays can
range from one to seven min-
utes.
If no data update has been
received for 75 minutes the
NEXRAD image is discarded
and no longer displayed.
