ROAD CONDITIONS Iowa: 1 (800) 288-1047 Scott Lind KCRG-TV9 Meteorologist Severe Weather As I mentioned in my column on Sunday, I spent the weekend at the Severe Storms and Doppler Radar Conference which -is held annually in West Des Moines. More than 200 meteorologists, storm chasers and weather enthusiasts from across the nation attended the event. Some of the big talk this year was about the National Weather Senice and how it issues tornado warnings. It was found that an upgrade to the government's NexRad radar may have actually decreased accuracy in issuing warnings last spring and summer.
There were several discussions about how weather service offices should handle the problem and reduce false alarms, Several new initiatives are in the works to help improve the weather service's accuracy when issuing warnings. str 4 Illinois: (217) 782 5730 1M 6241 Minnesota: 1 (800) 542-0220 Missouri: 1 (800) 222 6400 kiis.i CI Nebraska: (402) 471-4533 Wisconsin: 1 (800) 762-3947 sunsunny, pcpartly cloudy, cdycloudy, shshowers, tetthunderstorms, mrain, sfsnow flurries, snsnow, lceice.
