NEXRAD Reflectivity and Velocity Imagery
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/114.024

Summary
This data set contains the NEXRAD Reflectivity and Velocity Imagery from the
VORTEX2 Field Catalog for the entire United States. This is a very large
dataset, so the user should be careful to limit the number of days and hours
ordered. Please use the preview function to determine which dates, times, and
stations to order. The user may also use the NEXRAD imagery data sets by
station ID and name listed for VORTEX2 to order a series of images for a
particular station.
