Description:

"The lowest scan angle currently used by radars in the Nationwide WSR-88D network is +0.5 degree (deg) above horizontal. NWS proposes to operate the WSR-88D serving Coastal Washington State at scan angles between 0.0 deg (i.e. horizontal) and +0.5 deg. This action would increase the range of radar coverage over the Pacific Ocean and lower the height of the coverage floor over the ocean, which will benefit weather forecasters and other users of the radar data"--Cover letter.
