Säänradarista
Säänradarista, often translated as weather radar, is a crucial tool for meteorological observations and forecasting. It utilizes radio waves to detect precipitation, such as rain, snow, and hail, as well as to measure its intensity and movement. The technology works by emitting pulses of microwave energy into the atmosphere. When these waves encounter precipitation particles, they are scattered back towards the radar antenna. The strength and timing of the returned signal provide information about the size and density of the precipitation.
Modern weather radar systems can also distinguish between different types of precipitation and even detect wind
