BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) – The National Weather Service says its<\/p>\n
Doppler radar in Bismarck has been shut down for an upgrade.<\/p>\n
The installation of dual-polarization Doppler is part of a $50<\/p>\n
million upgrade to radar systems nationwide.<\/p>\n
The major advantage is the ability to distinguish the shape and<\/p>\n
size of objects in the air.<\/p>\n
Forecasters say it can help them predict flash floods and determine the difference between rain and snow when it is near 32 degrees.<\/p>\n
Officials say the radar will be down no longer than two weeks.<\/p>\n
