2D Radar Analysis (Desktop)

Tornadogenesis was analyzed by Chris Broyles for the following cases using planar and cross-section radar data to show the cell merger-DRC process. Each case took approximately 24 to 48 working hours to complete. During the fall of 2025, tornadogenesis was also examined for the tornadic storms with the 44 highest rotational velocities (VROT) from 2010 to 2025. The cell merger-DRC process was found in all 44 cases. Some of those cases are below.
