NOAA NSSL MRMS Seamless HSR Data
Summary
Quality-controlled reflectivity at the lowest possible vertical level are contained in this dataset from the ICICLE (In-Cloud ICing and Large-drop Experiment) domain in tarred and gzipped NetCDF format. It is a product that is first derived from single radar polar grids, and then mosaicked onto the MRMS national Cartesian grid. No MRMS data are available prior to 5 February due to the federal government shutdown in early 2019.
Any public presentations/publications using this data must include NSSL as co-author.
